India’s first hydrogen-powered passenger train, said to be the longest of its kind in the world, reached 120 km/h during a test run on the Jind–Sonipat route in the state of Haryana. The train consists of 10 railcars, has a capacity of up to 2,600 passengers, and still needs to complete compliance procedures before entering commercial service.
You just don’t get it, do you? You don’t. And I don’t know why I tried to explain it to you three times already, but safe isn’t it for hydrogen.
Safe and one of the most flammable substances on the planet (hydrogen) are opposite.
And guess what’s actually safer? Battery electric vehicles. (Not hybrids, they burn more often than regular fossil fuel vehicles.)
Hydrogen vehicle sales are falling. Good.
There are hundreds of deaths from battery fires already. Maybe even thousands. In all likelihood, hydrogen is safer than li-ion batteries in a car.
You so fucking fail to grasp the concept of relative frequency it’s astonishing. Fourth or fifth time you’ve made the same basic adult numeracy level comprehension error.
And no, you lied again, there are less than 100 fatalities globally ever from battery cars, and they’re nearly all Teslas. Elon Musk was never a fan of safety checks.
Hybrids, like I said, are the most dangerous of the non-hydrogen vehicles and cause over twice as many fires as petrol or diesel vehicles, but those are about sixty times as likely proportionately to cause a fire than far-and-away safest vehicles: battery electric vehicles.
There are definitely non-Tesla fires and there on the order of hundreds of deaths related to them. Many of them happen in China, so we do not hear much about them.
