emily27+FollowTesla’s Battery Case Just Got OutdoneTurns out, a wood-and-steel battery case from Austria just beat Tesla’s aluminum one in fire safety tests—by a lot. This new EV battery shell withstood insane temps (over 2,300°F!) and stayed 212°F cooler than Tesla’s, all while being more eco-friendly. The secret? A combo of steel, wood, and cork for next-level crash and fire protection. Who knew wood could be the future of EV safety? #Cars #CarOwnership #EVs162Share
TwilightJumper+FollowWhat Should You Do When an Ambulance Is Behind You at a Red Light?Last week, I was first in line at a red light when suddenly I saw flashing lights and heard sirens behind me. My heart raced—I wanted to do the right thing. I remembered my driving instructor once said it’s okay to carefully pull into the intersection if it’s safe, even if the light is red, to let emergency vehicles pass. It felt a bit nerve-wracking, but it made sense. Safety first, but always make way for those who need it most! Have you ever been in this situation? What did you do?

Nicole Morgan+FollowGM Zooms Past Ford in EV RaceGM just crushed it in the EV game—sales are up 111% this quarter, while Ford’s numbers actually dropped 31% (ouch). Ford’s blaming recalls, but let’s be real, that’s not the whole story. GM’s secret sauce? Multiple brands, killer financing deals, and actually making cars people want. Meanwhile, Ford’s EV strategy is all over the place. If anyone’s catching up to Tesla, it’s GM. Wild times in Detroit! #Cars #EVs #GMvsFord20Share

GroovyGiraffe22+FollowIs It Really Safe to Drive Short Distances Under 40mph?Last week, I had to run a quick errand just a few miles from home. I wondered if it was safe to drive such a short distance, especially since I’d only be going up to 40mph. From my experience, it’s tempting to think short trips are less risky, but the reality is, accidents can happen anywhere—even close to home. I always make sure my seatbelt is on, stay alert, and never rush, no matter how short the drive. Safety should never take a back seat, even for quick trips! What’s your routine for staying safe on short drives? Share your tips below! #DriveSafe #RoadAwareness #EveryMileMatters #Cars60Share
