Don't throw out your cigarette butt
Don't throw out your cigarette butt On WLHP heading southbound at Kingwood drive. I was in the left turn lane there and stopped at the light next to a pickup that had a very strong smell of gasoline. Once the light turned green and the truck accelerated, a literal river of gasoline poured out the bed of the truck under the tailgate. I'm guessing they had a dumped over gas can or auxiliary tank in the bed with a large leak.

buffaloglenn : Yes, one spark and it could have been *BOOM*

buffaloglenn : Thank goodness, I don't need the reminder as I am not a smoker but many do. Throwing cigarettes out the car window is disgusting. Sometimes people don't think about what their actions can do and anytime we are around cars there is a risk gas could be leaking. We are lucky in our area cause we do normally get a lot of rain. In other parts of Texas everything is bone dry and a cigarette could burn thousands of acers. Thanks for reminding everyone about this danger.

buffaloglenn : Oh man! That could be a disaster! I can't believe they didn't secure it properly.
