I agree with the silence of electric cars and they sould be given an artificial noise to make people aware of thier prescence.

I cannot agree that electric cars explode in flames more than petrol ones. You mention a pattern in news articles which I haven't seen.

Without objective data your item 2 becomes nothing more than an opinion which appears to have no foundation.
