Whoops: EV Fire Truck Burns Down Fire Station In Germany

Irony can be pretty ironic

Electric fire truck burns down brand new German fire station

Unfortunately, homes and businesses burn down every day. However, you don’t often hear about fire stations loaded with vital firefighting gear and professionals burning to the ground. That is, however, precisely what happened after an emergency vehicle with lithium-ion batteries like those in an electric fire truck caught fire and spread quickly.

The Feuerwehr station in Stadtallendorf is new. Really new. In fact, the new fire station opened its bay doors less than one year ago. The station could accommodate 10 fire engines and many firefighters. However, a tragic fire destroyed the station, despite its firefighting purposes.

According to euronews, the fire originated with “an emergency vehicle belonging to the fire department, which contained lithium-ion batteries and an external power connection.” Unfortunately, the electric emergency vehicle’s blaze destroyed at least 10 fire truck models and caused around 25 million Euros (27.05 million USD) in damage.

Well, that sure blew out a lot of money simply because politicians who mostly do not drive EVs are forcing EVs on everyone else, and not caring if this all makes sense when it comes to protecting people’s homes and lives.

Here’s the kicker, though. The brand-new, cutting-edge Feuerwehr station didn’t have a functioning fire alarm. I know, I know. A fire station with no fire alarm? The International Association of Fire and Rescue Services (CTIF) reports that first responders were outraged to find out that the expensive new facility lacked an alarm system.

Maybe it should be a paraphrase of the Jurassic Park quote “Your politicians were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”
