Why do people say that its dangerous to pump gas while your vehicle is running?

666 views

I have never turned my vehicle off while pumping gas in my life and have yet to have an issue. Especially coming from a Northern state where it gets pretty cold you see a lot of people doing the same thing. What is the potential risk or is it all just a myth?

I think I has to do with general safety these days. You don’t want the average person jumping in and out of a running car. It’s just too easy to forget to engage park, and suddenly you’re car is driving away from the pump… While attached to the hose.
