Another accident with a bus again after self-immolation. The incident is from Paris, France. An electric bus caught fire and burned completely in just 2-3 minutes.
The batteries of these buses are located on the roof and self-ignite without physical damage to the battery, not even being charged at the time of ignition.
Luckily there are no passengers on the bus. If there are passengers in the bus, their survival is questionable.
Toxic gases from burning the battery and the bus further contribute against environmentally friendly transport.

The off-road vehicle earned only one star in testing.
Non-profit organization Latin NCAP, which specializes in testing cars for the South American market, conducted a series of crash tests on two crossovers produced in Brazil. Experts tested the safety of Honda WR-V and Volkswagen Nivus subcompact SUVs. Both cars experienced a frontal impact at a speed of 64 kilometers per hour, side collisions with a cart and a pole. The results were the opposite, and the Honda model failed the crash test.
The Honda WR-V failed miserably. For the protection of adult passengers, the crossover earned 16.41 points, or 41 percent of the maximum result. In a frontal impact, the driver and passenger's legs and chest are poorly protected, and in a side impact, there is a risk of serious chest injury.
For child protection, the car received 19.92 points (40 percent of the maximum result). The car showed good results in protecting pedestrians: 28.23 points (59 percent). During crash tests, experts found that the seat belts do not comply with UN and Latin NCAP rules, and a side impact on a pole was not carried out at all due to the lack of side airbags. As a result, the crossover received only one star out of five possible.
The subcompact Volkswagen Nivus, on the contrary, coped with crash tests perfectly, earning the maximum number of stars. For the protection of adults and children, the crossover received 36.99 (92%) and 44.87 points (92%), since the car is already equipped with six airbags as standard. At the same time, for the protection of pedestrians during a collision, the car received even less points than Honda - 23.4 (49%).
In early September, the updated Toyota Tundra XK70 received the highest safety rating during crash tests. The full-size pickup was tested during collisions and rollovers.
