CELL PHONES AND AUTO GAS STATION PUMPS
Using your cell phone at a gas pump or using any battery operated
electronic device here could possibly cause a spark which could ignite
gas pump fumes thus causing a deadly explosion! Your cell phone
instruction manual says that you should not operate it in an area that
could ignite or explode and this includes gas stations. Of course,
too many cell phone users may not be heeding this advice, so beware of
those around you when pumping gas.
