Watch Video! Vehicle sanitization with alcohol based sanitizer to curb COVID-19 goes horribly wrong!

The spread of the COVID-19 has instilled fear in the minds of the people wherein the level of maintaining basic hygeine has gone a notch higher. Meanwhile the use of hand sanitizer has been advised at regular intervals to curb and break the spread of the deadly virus. However, as people take several measures to sanitise and stop the spread, here is an instance of what could go terribly if there is reckless use of disinfectant.  The video below shows guards of a gated society spraying alcohol-based disinfectant sprays on vehicles before entering.

The guard sprays disinfectant on the scooter and lets him go inside. However, the second time around when a motorcycle comes the sprayed disinfectant catches fire engulfing the motorcycle in flames. Post the fire, it could also be seen that the fire extinguisher provided at the guard’s office was non-operational. Such disinfectants are not safe to be used anywhere near a vehicle, including storing it inside the car. This is not the first instance when an alcohol-based disinfectant has caused a serious fire.
