đ„ If Firefightersâ Gear Needs a Week and specialist Equipment to remove Toxins and Decontaminate After an EV Fire⊠Whoâs going to clean the Bus Station?
#EVFire #ElectricBus #PublicSafety
After an EV fire, firefightersâ protective clothing and equipment can require specialist cleaning and decontamination because of the toxic smoke, chemicals, soot and contamination produced during the incident.
So hereâs the obvious question:
If firefightersâ gear needs specialist treatment after an EV fire, who is responsible for cleaning and decontaminating the bus station?
This video looks at the uncomfortable issue nobody seems keen to discuss: EV fire contamination in public spaces.
It is not just about putting the flames out. It is about what is left behind afterwards.
The smoke.
The soot.
The residue.
The toxic by-products.
The contaminated surfaces.
The public spaces people are expected to walk back into.
When an electric bus catches fire in a bus station, the fire service deals with the emergency. But once the fire engines leave, who checks the building? Who tests the air? Who cleans the walls, floors, drains, doors, seats, ticket machines and surrounding areas?
And more importantly, who tells the public it is safe?
This is the question that needs answering.
Because if firefighter clothing needs a week and specialist equipment to remove toxins and decontaminate after an EV fire, then surely the same question should be asked about the bus station itself.
This is not anti-technology.
This is not scaremongering.
This is basic public safety.
EV fires are different. Battery fires can produce toxic fumes, contaminated runoff, difficult-to-extinguish fires and complex clean-up problems.
So why are the clean-up questions so often ignored?
