Each vehicle is unique and may require different techniques to extinguish, which means there are no set standards for putting out an EV fire. Current best practices for an EV fire, depending on who you speak with, include submerging the vehicles in water, piercing the battery pack and inundating it with water, disabling a vehicle's 12-volt circuit, or simply letting the fire burn until it's out, emitting chemical toxins into the air.

An EV driver can be vulnerable to crime while charging their car due to their inability to drive away quickly. The problem is inherent to how an EV works. EVs cannot be plugged in and immediately driven away — drivers must wait for the battery to sufficiently recharge before departing, which can take anywhere from 15 minutes to over an hour (depending on the car and the charger, along with charging needs).

The public sector suffered 236 million ransomware attacks in the first half of 2022, according to SecurityScorecard. This figure can - and likely will - double in 2023. And that's only ransomware. It doesn't include all state-sponsored attacks, phishing, credential thefts, or DDOS attacks. Clearly, the age of data has caused an explosion of cybercrime and cyber warfare, resulting in an unrelenting assault on the public sector.

TORONTO - As Canadian cities look for ways to combat violence on public transit, experts say strategies south of the border that combine law enforcement, social supports and community engagement could offer new solutions. Violence on transit has captured national attention in recent weeks - a 17-year-old boy was fatally stabbed on a Vancouver-area bus last week, a man had life-threatening injuries after his throat was slashed on a Surrey, B.C., bus earlier this month, and a 16-year-old boy was stabbed to death in an unprovoked attack at a Toronto subway station in March.
