The Tesla Roadster has beenthe streets for over 5 years.

Same size batteries with almost identical chemistry. No fires.

ICE cars have a much higher rate of fire as they age because of rust and vibration begins to compromise structural integrity.

Tesla uses aluminum and aerospace grade bolts and adhesive. Same as used at Mr Musk's SpaceX rocket company.

Only time will tell regarding safety. So far so good.

No deaths, No paralysis. No loss of limbs. No second or third degree burns.
