So I walk out to the car this morning and open the door. There is a tiny bit of shredded paper in the interior and blue plastic shrapnel in my seat and a little around the interior car.
A lighter that was in my cup holder with a note on in the same area it blew up.
Luck it didn't hurt anything just a little clean up and leasson learned. Don't leave lighters in your car...

Sometimes it's just a matter of the sun shining through the windshield at just the right(or wrong) angle. As a cop, I responded to vehicles that burned completely to the ground due to lighters exploding. | | | | | 10-04-2010, 06:26 AM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Louisiana Posts: 1,093 |
