Why Tesla’s cars keep crashing

Pretty sure if firefighters got there in time they could break the glass, unless they meant the battery fire was so fierce they couldn’t approach the vehicle.

Window glass in most modern vehicles is laminated rather than a simple tempered pane - makes them less likely to shatter in a rollover, and thereby eject occupants, but harder to break through in an emergency.

TBH I see this more as a “firefighters aren’t being given the right tools” issue, as this is far from unique to Tesla, and the tools have existed since laminated side glass became a requirement - but don’t seem to yet be part of standard issue or training.
