The thing about gasoline is that the liquid itself doesn't ignite, the vapors do. And it vaporizes easily at normal temperatures/pressure. That's why you keep it sealed as tight as possible. Any spark at that gas station could have lit the whole place up as that idiot was filling into an open container, with vapors spilling out everywhere.

Gas up about 30 cents this week here. With harvest coming on we got 5k gallons of diesel last week before the price jumped. That will only last us a week though.

I'd like to know how he and what other idiot is gonna attempt lifting that out of the bed of a truck w/o spilling gas everywhere?

Lid or not, someone is getting gas soaked
