    I’m not suggesting anything but RC cars with small propane torches mounted facing upwards might be a danger to Teslas. It might take one or two minutes though.

    Also, generally, in parking lots only one EV per row has to catch fire.

      That’s an interesting idea. Light it up and then drive it under? Can be done from a distance. The flame isn’t too visible so won’t be too noticeable while the RC is moving. Once under the car, it would basically be invisible until the battery starts smoking. Yeah from entirely hypothetical engineering standpoint, this could cause an accident.

        You don’t have to light it first. Just get an rc car with an extra button (like headlights) and solder some leads to create a spark instead
