Is It Safe to Keep Alcohol Bottles in a Car?
1 Answers
Keeping alcohol bottles in a car is not safe. When exposed to direct sunlight, the temperature inside the car can rise significantly. Alcohol is a flammable and volatile substance, which makes it highly susceptible to ignition. If there happens to be a glass bottle or any item with a concave or convex lens-like shape, the resulting focal point could potentially cause the car to explode. According to regulations: Transporting explosive materials, flammable and explosive chemicals, as well as highly toxic or radioactive hazardous materials by motor vehicles must be approved by public security authorities. Such transport must adhere to specified times, routes, and speeds, display warning signs, and implement necessary safety measures. If a driver needs to carry medical alcohol, it is important to avoid smoking in the car, ensure the packaging containers for the medical alcohol are leak-proof and undamaged, and monitor for any leaks during transit to prevent potential hazards to personal safety inside the vehicle.
