  1. Densely storing vehicles is generally a bad idea but desperation is the mother of invention.

  2. Hauling these auction lot junkers is inherently dangerous AND securing them is really a job for a mechanic. (Lifelong mechanic here, jets on down.) Car carriers are unsafe because their makers CHOOSE to EXTERNALIZE risks. Firefighters should take no risk to put them out. The US should require exporters to perform pretrip car battery REMOVAL. Warehouse tugs fitted with a front-mounted wheel lift as used on repo trucks could shuttle them easily. For now, prepare to lose those vessels and don't risk firefighters for them. Reduced exports should that happen improve the US used car and salvage market! Go hard with safety regulations and heed no snivelling. COERCE COMPLIANCE by vigorous enforcement (paid for by exporters) and fine generously.
