"Millions of dollars of toxic cars are lying at the bottom of the ocean after a massive cargo ship fire. Now, authorities are looking for someone to blame."

Well here we go...entertaining like a watching a dog chase its tail. Tough questions for the salvage team perhaps as the insurance companies get ready to pay an enormous amount of money in losses.

I wonder how many of the customers of these cars are now cancelling orders based on the current world events? I'll never be of the means to place an order for such a vehicle, but if you have are there methods to cancel the order now that your car is at the bottom of the ocean? Sounds like at least you may be on the hook for a deposit?
