I can't think of anything less safe than a fully loaded EV 18-wheeler that is almost impossible to put out when it catches on fire. Also weighs almost 10k more

I can't think of anything less safe than a fully loaded EV 18-wheeler that is almost impossible to put out when it catches on fire. Also weighs almost 10k more pounds than an ICE equivalent.

Perhaps they could have added requirements in the regulation that the batteries in 2035 must be solid-state, safer, and less than 50% of the weight of their current battery tech. I think there should be government incentives to help fund and improve battery tech and electric motors. Current solid state batteries would meet this requirement but AFAIK have not found their way into automobiles just yet and are just starting to be mass produced.
