Will Forgetting to Turn Off the Engine Once While Refueling Cause a Fire?
1 Answers
Forgetting to turn off the engine once while refueling will not cause a fire if the car does not produce sparks during operation at the gas station. Although it is a probability event, car owners should not take it lightly, as the consequences can be very severe if it happens. Car owners should remember to turn off the engine first before refueling at the gas station. Refueling without turning off the engine poses a fire hazard for the car, and in severe cases, it could even lead to a fire at the entire gas station. The car's engine operates at high temperatures continuously, and some electrical devices in the car may also be in working condition. If an electrical device experiences a short circuit, even a small spark could potentially cause a fire or even an explosion at the gas station.
