Tesla Semi Fire - shuts down highway because they have to let it burn…

Isn’t this now the 2nd instance of a major semi fire that has shut down a major highway? I believe the last one from weeks ago was a non-Tesla rig but the fire was due to its cargo of lithium batteries flaring up - and again it had to sit and burn….
Wow - seems real “green” to me, burning up rigs, loosing all cargo on board, torching the land around it, causing mass delays since these fire types can’t be put out (and who knows what the toxic plumes of smoke are drifting up into the air)…. And then there’s the cost of insurance losses, repairing the roadway, and additional expense of Fire/Police having to just sit by being taken away from other calls….
Give up on the EV BS already…. It’s not working out and it’s causing more issues than ICE has in the last 100+ years…
