The battery is typically located on the bottom of the car and can span the length of the vehicle. Since EV cars tend to be extra low to the ground, the batteries can be hard to reach. O'Hearn said sometimes firefighters try to tip the car on its side with their hands.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Gerry Pipe is a steel pipe on wheels with a fire hose nozzle at the end. It allows firefighters to put out the fire underneath from a safe distance.</li> </ul><a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/retired-everett-firefighter-gerry-pipe-electric-vehicle-fires/" target="_blank">https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/retired-everett-firefighter-gerry-pipe-electric-vehicle-fires/</a></blockquote>
