Your Hand Sanitizer Won’t Spontaneously Combust In Your Vehicle

You may have seen the myth that Hand Sanitizer could explode if left in a hot car floating around on social media, so I thought I would check with a local expert.  I spoke with Mike Otis, Fire Life Safety Educator for the City of Sarnia and he confirmed that it will not combust in your car, it would need something (like a flame) to ignite it.

He also shared this LINK with me, check it out for more information.
