Can I drive if I forgot to turn off the engine while refueling? The answer is yes. Here are specific precautions to take when refueling: 1. No phone calls: The increased communication signal strength in mobile phones can cause electronic friction with the gas station's electronic equipment, which may easily ignite the fuel. 2. No open flames: Fuel is a highly flammable substance, and even a small spark can lead to safety hazards at the gas station. Not only is smoking prohibited, but the use of matches, lighters, or any other ignition tools is also forbidden. 3. Turn off the engine while refueling: The car must be turned off during refueling to extinguish any flames inside the vehicle, ensuring safe refueling. This is particularly important for older cars, as they may occasionally produce sparks during the refueling process.
