Is it safe to keep a gas cylinder in the car during summer?
1 Answers
No, gas cylinders are hazardous materials. Here are the relevant details: Reason: The temperature inside a car trunk can become very high during summer, which can easily cause the cylinder to explode due to the heat. Therefore, gas cylinders should not be stored in car trunks. Any vehicle transporting hazardous materials must possess a transportation permit issued by the chemical and hazardous materials department, and drivers must undergo proper training. Additionally, a certified escort must accompany the transport. Illegal storage of gas cylinders can be reported to public security authorities or fire control management departments. Criminal law provisions: Article 125 of the Criminal Law: Illegal manufacturing, trading, transporting, mailing, or storing of firearms, ammunition, or explosives is punishable by imprisonment of three to ten years; in severe cases, the punishment can range from ten years to life imprisonment or even the death penalty.
