      <title>THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND SAFETY OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES. REPORT NO. 2: THE CURRENT STATUS OF EV SAFETY: A REVIEW OF ISSUES, REGULATIONS, AND PROGRAMS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/483667</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This is the second in a series of studies designed to assess the full scope of the environmental impacts and safety issues related to electric vehicles (EVs).  These reports are meant to aid policy makers and the public in their ongoing deliberations concerning the widespread introduction of EVs.  This report contains an in-depth analysis of the safety issues posed by EVs. It includes a comparison of EVs to current internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles in eleven safety issue areas, the current status of regulations and programs concerning EV safety, and a detailed examination of four safety concerns unique to EV technology:  (1) hydrogen gassing; (2) electrolyte spillage; (3) electric shock; and (4) toxic fumes.  There is also a section on emergency service training programs.  Overall, this report found that there are no significant safety risks involved with utilizing EVs, and that widespread adoption of EVs will result in a significantly safer fleet of vehicles than the ICE fleet currently in use.]]></description>
