Have you ever thought what should you do if your car caught fire? The first thing which you should always remember is never use water.
Car fires can be very dangerous and each year thousands die from car fires while millions of cars are completely or partially destroyed around the globe.
If your car caught fire while driving then:
- The first thing you should do is stop at the nearest place
- Turn off the ignition
- Every person should get out of the vehicle
- Move at least 100 feet away from the car to protect yourself from flames
- Call emergency for help
During the fire take photos which will be helpful when claiming insurance. Also take contact numbers nearby so that someone will be witness to your claim.
To avoid such fires make sure that your car is in good condition, regularly visit an auto shop for inspection to avoid such circumstances.
