Thanks for agreeing. Using containers to fill up petrol is indeed dangerous. Thank you for your observation.

another risk to highlight at petrol pump is to place containers on the floor, not inside vehicle, when filling up. it has been known that plastic containers might hold static electricity and caused a spark when being filled without being grounded (earthed). still a chance even if malaysia’s climate is not so dry.

keep up the good info.
