Obnews Automobile Desk: Nowadays people are giving priority to CNG and LPG cars because they give better mileage and are more economical than petrol and diesel. However, wrong installation and negligence increases the risk of accidents in these vehicles. Let us know what causes these accidents and how it can be avoided.

1. Company not having fitted kit

Many people install after-market kits from the market instead of taking the company fitted CNG or LPG kit in the car. Sometimes these kits are cheap and low quality, which increases the chances of accident.

2. Installation by untrained mechanic

If the CNG or LPG kit is applied by an untrained mechanic, electrical connections may be disturbed. Sometimes some wires are left open, causing problems like short circuit and gas leaks.

3. Smoking inside the car

Many people smoke inside the car, causing the risk of fire when the gas is leaked. This can become a major cause of accidents in CNG and LPG vehicles.

4. Do not serve on time

CNG and LPG cars require periodically servicing and maintenance. If leakage, pipeline and valve are not examined on time, accidents can occur.

5. Danger from after-market accessories

Many people install accessories from the market in their cars, for which the wiring of the car has to be cut. This can lead to electrical fault in the car, which can lead to a major cause of accidents.
