What we do in case of car fires

Most of us are aware of the dangers that can occur from house fires. Rarely think about the possibility of fire in the car. If you go by car often, you've probably seen on the road a car or two on fire.

You've probably had misfortune to have a fire in your car even faster and they can be devastating. If you know what to do in this case, it can save lives and can minimize the risks to others.

Most fires occur in one or two places: the engine compartment and passenger compartment. Engine compartment fires are generally caused by the ignition of the fuel reverse. This happens because the hot gas in the carburetor back where steam ignite any gas that existed after the engine is stopped. A fire in the engine compartment may be caused by any other method of heat or fire to ignite when coming in contact with gas fumes. If you suspect a fire in the engine compartment, pull over (if necessary), but not park near other vehicles or near anything flammable. Stop the engine and headlights. This can stop the flow of fuel or electricity, which can be components of the fire. All off the car and move to a safe distance from the car. (Fire could go down to the fuel tank, thus creating a dangerous situation additional).

If you have a fire in the passenger compartment, you have to do the same thing, stop by the roadside and give you out of the car. Take fire extinguisher (you have one car, huh?) And use it to extinguish the fire. Be careful, though - inside the car fires can spread rapidly because they are usually enough to reach flammable materials. In any case, called firefighters and asked a passerby to call you want to go as soon as possible. Get up, keep people away from the car. Remember - safety is the most important!
