eli5: Why is there a -no mobile phone- sign at gas stations?

243 views

There are always signs that show the ban of cigarettes, matches and phones at gas stations. I can imagine fire being dangerous around gas, but you can’t possibly blow up a gas station with a mobile phone, can you?

people really need to focus on what they’re doing instead of multi tasking all the time. refuelling a car while chatting on the phone can lead to a lot of spillage, even without the fire hazard.
