Third Fire In Five Weeks -- The Tesla

This time the driver apparently "hit a tow hitch."

InsideEVs is reporting:
Having recently gone through two “fire incidents” after an accident in the past 5 weeks, a third fire Model S has caught fire under potentially a similar condition.
And while the first two fires happened after the Tesla plug-in sedan had taken some serious damage, this Model S looks to have suffered less damage before the occurrence – although we would stress patience in jumping to any conclusions before an official investigation report has been released.
Another great photo at the link. 

If hitting a tow hitch can cause a fire, one wonders if jumping a curb or similar event could cause a fire.
