Lightbulb Petrol station mobile risk 'myth'

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england...shire-17568804

Quote:

Dr Adam Burgess, of the University of Kent,said that out of 243 petrol station fires attributed to mobiles around the world in the last 11 years, not one was caused by a handset.

Researchers said static electricity from the body caused many of the fires.

I'll be disliked for this opinion,but,how on earth can anyone blame someone else for this,Anyone with two brain cells knows not to have an open flame near petrol,it's laughable some people blame David Cameron himself,infact anyone but themselves,was he holding the gerry can?have people not got minds of there own anymore,he gave sound advice but he should have known people would over react as usual ,with emptying petrol stations,seems we cant share, we want it all for ourselves.I hope that woman survives but what a daft thing to do,would anyone here do that?I certainly wouldn't,where has peoples common sense gone?

I don't think it's fair to call her an 'idiot'. We're humans and we all make mistakes and now her whole life is basically ruined, so have a little sympathy eh

As much as our present Government have handled this situation badly imo, there is no way they can be blamed for the stupidity of this lady. I really feel for her, but FGS!!....

..I think everyone has sympathy for what's happened to her Salman...it's awful..but the fact is..it wasn't the smartest thing to do..it's a shame that such a 'mistake'..has such a high price to pay
..but no one has said they don't have sympathy..for what the end result has been for her

I think it is very fair to call her an idiot. What she did was idiotic. I feel sorry for her that she has suffered, but it was down to her own stupidity that it happened.

He's ineffective and a liability and must go... but not over this. People have to take responsibility for themselves.

What a shame people use what is essentially a tragic accident to score political points.
