Automobile Fires
While inside your car, there are few things as frightening as seeing flames erupt from under the hood of the vehicle. It is a tremendous danger, especially if it occurs after an accident. Car accidents, by their very nature, often leave motorists in a dazed and vulnerable position, and the addition of a fire to this already dangerous situation can be deadly.
Car accidents can have many different causes, from random accidents, to reckless driving, to negligent vehicle design. If your accident resulted from someone else’s negligence, it is important that the responsible party is held accountable. Call 800- 242-2874 to speak with the Green Bay car accident attorneys of Habush Habush & Rottier S.C. about your situation.
Sources of Ignition
20% of all reported fires are car fires. One of the reasons for this is the fact that a car is powered by its internal combustion engine. This is essentially a harnessed explosion, and with so many moving parts and flammable items, an automobile is a threat to life and limb in the event of a malfunction or accident. Some of the most common sources of car fires come from:
- Electrical Devices
- Exhaust Systems
- Air Bag Detonators
- Car Batteries
Keep your car well-maintained and drive safely. Doing your part goes a long way to keeping you safe and preventing a potentially deadly car fire.
