If you cant put petrol in a car.. then dont buy it.( my personal opinion)
Cng/lpg is certainly intrinsically not safe...
The probability of risk in a cng/lpg equipped car is really high.
In the event of a fire in the car for whatever reason, our investigating agencies are certainly not equipped to correctly ascertain the cause.
Until such a time that safety features are designed to a point where the probability of risk can be reduced to a very negligible percentage, in my opinion gas vehicles should not be legalised. Besides, is there a system in place where every gas kit vehicle has to be periodically certified by a concerned authority. How many people owning gas vehicles, including the numerous travelling time bombs(mumbai taxis & autos) actually service these kits unless there is a problem. A gas kit problem is mostly associated with smell. But cng aint got no stink. So ....?? |
