Fire Extinguiser In A Car

RE: Fire Extinguiser In A Car Post by mom-from-missouri (67) | (02/25/2008) Profile | Contact What type of fire extinguisher is it? The ones made for a kitchen are a different type and rating than those for an auto. Check with your local fire dept.

Just make sure you can get to it in an emergency. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Fire Extinguiser In A Car Post By Tedebear (Guest Post) (07/13/2005) Hi Liz, We keep a fire extinguisher in each car. Be sure it is secure. One day mine rolled around in the trunk and filled the car with "dust". I pulled over immediately and wasn't sure what had happened until I opened the trunk! It was a mess to clean up, but we immediately put another one in the trunk! More than once, we have stopped and helped someone by having an extinguisher in our car.

But I've heard lots of people keep them in their cars...under the drivers seat would probably be the best place if there is room, depends on what type of car you have and if you can secure it. I drive a Honda Element, it would roll EVERYWHERE in there!

I don't know about the trunk. I imagine it would be the same. Report Spam or Abuse
