Every Action Matters at the Gas Station
Before refueling a car with gas, it is necessary to check that the vehicle's gas cylinder equipment is in good working condition, has passed a technical inspection in the prescribed manner, and that the relevant documents are available.
This requirement is not merely a formality. On the contrary, it is a crucial measure aimed at ensuring the safety of the driver, passengers, gas station employees, and bystanders.
What to Pay Attention to During Refueling?
During the refueling process, the vehicle's engine must be turned off, the driver and passengers must step out of the vehicle, the use of open flames is strictly prohibited, and the instructions of the safety personnel must be strictly followed.
In particular, if any damage, malfunction, or failure to pass a timely technical inspection is detected in the gas cylinders, refueling such a vehicle is considered extremely dangerous.
No Documents — No Refueling
If the relevant documents for the vehicle's gas cylinder equipment are not provided, refueling the car with propane-butane is not permitted.
This restriction is not intended to inconvenience the driver, but rather to prevent potential emergency situations and to ensure the safety of human life and property.
Safety is a Shared Responsibility
Ensuring safety at gas stations is the duty of not only the responsible staff but also every driver. If every citizen adheres to the established rules, many hazardous situations can be prevented.
The Committee for Industrial, Radiation, and Nuclear Safety under the Cabinet of Ministers calls upon citizens, drivers, and gas filling station employees to take a responsible approach to safety requirements during the propane-butane refueling process.
Remember, complying with safety rules means saving your own life and the lives of those around you.
