wouldn't you think there could have been a warning light on the dashboard to tell you  the car was about to explode

Only if it had been a Volvo

More proof that smoking is bad for your health!

This all sounds a bit dim, at face value but I don't know whether we can actually blame the bloke. Was he supposed to know that the propellant for all of these aerosol sprays is LPG? Butane gas? Does it say on the tin "always provide ventilation before using this product."?

All the same, he must have used an awful lot of it!

I notice he, himself, was not injured. This is also quite common in gas explosions.

I suspect he will feel an increase in his pain levels when he carefully suggests what happened on his insurance claim form.....

Ive never understood why smoking is allowed whilst driving. It’s a distraction and a hazard, just like a phone. More so as you can’t exactly be hands free. If you dropped the cigarette I’m sure you would panic it would burn you and you would fumble around for it whilst driving.

Look lulu, the way things are going with me and this phone, I'm likely to smoke this phone whether I'm driving or not.

Do you know which app to use for that MM??

The current smoking laws and where you can and cannot smoke are ridiculous , my youngest sons girlfriend two years ago was seventeen , so it was an offence for my son to smoke whilst she was in the car , yet she could happily smoke away to her hearts content sitting beside him in his car  !

"OK Google, spray air freshener in here and then light a cigarette for me"

[Smoggy]

He's more lucky the police didn't shoot him as he got out, bet they would in london at the moment.

I was passenger in my friends car many years back now, and we were driving along with the windows open and he flicked his cigarette out of the window, it sailed back in the rear window and went down the back of his tee shirt, talk about panic, i eventually got it out and out of the car, while my friend managed to pull up on the hard shoulder

Great film!

Just saying, but in the inward Customs car hall if the interior of a car reeked of air freshener it usually meant someone had been smoking dope in there and it was time to get busy.
