If you are at a gas station and you get shocked by static, the small bolt of electricity could ignite the fumes from the gas and make everything explode

Here are two possible reasons for your situation. First, there are certain brands of tires that build up a charge as they roll down the road. Second, what you’re wearing and the particular upholstery your car has can cause you to build up a charge as you move around in the driver’s seat.
