  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

But what if it's on fire? It's okay for them to not work if it's on fire right? Asking for a billionaire...

If it's on fire. The vehicle should go into lock down and seal itself shut to starve the fire if oxygen. Duh!

Especially battery electric cars that burn without oxygen should do that to contain the fumes which otherwise would endanger people nearby.
