ICE vehicles don't typically spontaneously combust after a crash...

If the combustion occurs as the result of a crash, can that really be said to be “spontaneous?”
No, just during, when you're unconscious, and not safe in your new car miles away.
Right. They sometimes spontaneously combust even without crashes.
