I kind of feel like the avatar right now , I have
talked about how to survive a water crash,lets talk about how to prevent
a car fire .
Always Have A Fire Extinguisher
I cant shout this loud enough, always have a fire extinguisher in you car ,all the time !!!.
Drive Safely
A good percentage of car fires occur as a result of reckless driving most times after a collision , so always drive safely , and stay sober (don’t drive while drunk ).
Avoid Transporting Fuel
I know this is almost impossible in Naija , but as much as you can , avoid transporting fuel in kegs , in your boot,if its inevitable , make sure it isn’t full to the brim and its very stable and upright .Also keep it far away from electrical wires.
Always Do Routine Check Ups
- Before you take a drive , pop open your bonnet , check the fuel nozzles or pipes, make sure they are well fitted and there are no leakages .
- Always check your fuel tank for leaks and cracks .Don’t ignore any , no matter how small.
- Always look around for open or “Unclad” wires and seal them up with a masking tape,a little spark can start a massive fire.
- Make sure your battery terminals are well fitted to prevent unnecessary sparks .
- Replace bad fuses
Tidy Up
Keep your boot and inside your car free of paper and other items that can easily catch fire as much as possible .
Park In A Safe Location
When you got to eat out in Iya Basira’s shop park far away from her firewood .Always park your car far away from anything that could possible trigger a fire, no matter how small .
I hope you enjoyed this guys , don’t forget to comment and share .
