- It's not just cars that are electrifying!
We were invited to speak at the Heavy Vehicle Industry Association's conference this week, and of course went to have a look at all the electric and hydrogen trucks on display.
Check out what's coming to market and how to manage an incident involving one of these HVEVs.

Great job Dan
Answer;
step1 -Stand back and watch the truck burn everything around it. Get you a lung full of THAT!
step2 -Wash away all the heavy metals and toxic debris left behind into the storm drains quickly, before the enviros show up.
Step3 -Blame the fire on a petrol car.
In the UK they always blame diesels
