Volkswagen Van Drives Itself Into Condo While On Fire
This article affirms the stories. If your battery has enough juice, an electrical fire can trigger the starter and subsequently start your engine. And if your standard transmission vehicle is in gear (you should totally park in a forward gear when parked on a hill, as this van was), it will drive on it's own. Hopefully with the ebrake on it won't go very far... especially because it's ON FIRE. Oh man.
