Vehicle fires are some of the most common blazes that firefighters encounter. Car fires become particularly dangerous when they are fuel fed. A fuel fire, which most often results from dangerous placement of the fuel tank, defective fuel line materials, a fuel leak or a car accident, carries with it the potential for a deadly explosion, intense heat and toxic fumes. Fuel fires can result in severe burns and even death. There are about 300,000 car fires each year, killing approximately 500 people and injuring thousands more.
