Not in Nigeria...

I don't have 3rd party but have you seen the 3rd party chedule ? ?

ifyain:
I don,t know where Nigerian frsc sourced their knowledge and information, you should never tackle any fire unless you are trained or a fire marshal.if fire extinguishers are required in the vehicle, manufacturers would have provided one. I live here in Europe and it is never part of MOT certificate. Your life is worths more than a car, in case of any fire just think of your safety first.

The thing tire man instead of people to talk against this as policy them dey encourage them.If you as a driver chose to have a fire extinguisher fine good however it should not be a policy or requirement where not owning one is seen as an offence .

Reference:
Read the second paragraph pls. It explains my inquiry. Typical car fires are totalled within two to three minutes. Even the best emergency services can only deal with a fraction of them. When victims are trapped in accidents, fire fatalities are near 100 percent anywhere in the world.

You missed the point . Car fires are unpredictable . You have a petrol tank within which is highly volatile . You jave engine,Gear oil oil The advice from London fire brigade is if you can get away run to get the nears help dial 999..
By the way if your car is insured why worry
even 3rd party insurance covers fire and theft .

billyG:
and so even if i hav money i cannot still take loan frm d bank?go & find work 2 do!evaluator of women's dresses.

Yes you can but if you say the reason you took loan is cos you are broke and don't have money it means you and pmb have same level of education .

busomma:
Sectional & ethnic based politics is the main reason Nigeria will never move forward. South South house of reps members are siding with Jonathan not to give account of his stewardship for which he was elected , to unmask the truth that has embarrassed the nation the world over. That's supporting impunity. Investigations done in other countries about this Malibu oil deal futures Jonathan's name prominently. Why should he not tell his own side of the story if he has nothing to hide.

as we speak Jonathan is in his village . He does not own any house outside of Nigeria . Yet one person was chief savings bank sotey dem buy house in the UAE .

Reference:
Why. Is ex-president Jonathan above the law. Great privilege comes wity great responsibility. If there is no precedent he should start one of accountability. I have great respect for the Legislature. They seem to be doing a good job this administration.

We should start with pmb and OBj

Proudlyngwa:
Good move.
He is not above accountability.

Otr southern senators should forget this our brother thing.
If other regions don't want to prosecute thei criminals, that is their problem.

Reference:
My question to auto gurus is why technology has not evolved to have cars come with built in or factory fitted fire supressants located in the trunk or more appropriately the engine bay the way jet engines are built. I mean PMS is certainly more flammable than Jet A1 and when you have top cars and trucks going for upwards of a $100,000, you'd think passenger safety and property security would be a wiser consideration than LED moonlights or two rear facing 12 inch screens just centimetres from each apart.

Paul Walker may have lived with such a system in place when it is widely known that a lot of fire deaths are as a result of trapped victims. Of what good is an extinguisher in the glove compartment or under the seat of a mangled car. Someone is not thinking right here.

The answer to your question is for government to implement robust Emergency Service . 3 en though you have all what it takes to put out a fire you might need training to put out a serious fire . If your car burst into flame run away.you got insurance to cover the cost however if you have a car you think you can die for by roasting yourself and you the owner did not deem it fit to Insure such car then the Owner's stupidly is way out of this world !

RapportNaija:
Nice one OP... See Tips to apply when your car is on fire

And this is How to use a fire extinguisher

When you have what they call ball of fire you at seriously yelling me you going to risk your life going that close to your car knowing fully well your car could explode at any time cos it means you are aprox 1 mtr frm fire source

Reference:
Are they filled with water these days....just asking.

some are .

Akinaukwa:
The fire extinguisher in my brother's car has spent over 4 years inside the booth. It is not having the extinguisher that matters but to ensure it has not expired.

In reality fire extinguishers do not expire rather they should be serviced and checked to see if the mechanism are working correctly . If spent then it should be replaced and serviced . Does water have expiry date for putting out fire ?

GAZZUZZ:
sadly if you have ever been in an actual fire sittuation in a regular car, you will understand that a 1kg fire extinguisher is insufficient for an engine fire.

Very correct this is why the priority would have been to have standby fire engines on our highways . In the UK the advice is see fire ? RUN far away from your car and dial 999 for help.9ja they want you to fight fire and kill yourself cos of car!

holocron:
Don't you think the 2 bolded sentences contradict each other? Your 2nd assertion rhymes with what we are saying. The engine takes a shorter time (than in colder climes) to attain operating temperature (88°C). Without thermostat, the water constantly coming in from the radiator is about 50°C - 60°C, gets to the engine and rapidly rises to 88 degrees before moving on to the radiator.

Not at all, you need to know the relationship btw the cooling fan and the thermostat to understand what I said, i.e. water can be over cooled by your fan or breeze

I just remembered certain scenarios I would love to share.

Thanks plenty for this post, you made my Morning,
PS,Im still laughing, even my Polish friend is laughing too
Appreciate xxxx

holocron:
I know and accept all you have said. I am more interested at the bolded. Yes, Nigeria lies very close to the equator b/w latitudes 4° and 13°in the tropics and as such the sun is almost always overhead all year round. These other areas you mentioned are all above latitude 30°, part pf the temperate regions of the world. Note: The sun can never be directly above your head anywhere above 30° latitude. Those places you mentioned, there midday sun even in summer is like our 10am sun. Nigeria is far hotter than those areas. Thats why our skin evolved to black and they remained fair.

The external temperature of your car has no direct effect to an internal combustion Engine, its a closed system, heat is generated and taken care of from within is why the Thermostats open when teh water is HOT enough, at high speed your fan sometimes stop working as the water iscool enough to go round your block due to wind action.The Only way the external environment effect the temp of your Engine is the rate at which it takes to reach normal working temp.Those super fast cars have a mechanism to heat up fuel and coolant to reach this temp sharpish.

holocron:
Your article is quite informative. I have been following your submissions and I must say kudos to you for excellent professionalism and scientific attitude uncommon in this part of the world.

From your article, I am yet still a bit uncertain that removal of the themostat in certain cars operàting in a tropical climate like Nigeria can OVER COOL an engine. Maybe overheat, but over cool? For instance in your test case you compared an engine running on 30°C. How is it possible when room temperature in Nigeria is 30°C and many hot afternoons reach 40 to 50°C ?

And from experience, on certain smaller engines and single cell radiators, removal of thermostat does cause overheating in Nigeria, usually when the car is idling or in holdups.

I think you are a bit LATE to class, the issue of thermostat has been trashed since 2007, anyways, teh thermostat is just a valve device fitted with a special metal that reacts quick ot change in temperature, it has only two way flow in and out and there is not electrical function just manual.All car Engines has an ultimate temp thats when your dial is in the middle,Now the only variable to this is how long it takes the cooling system to rise to this temp.This was where the Idea of warm the Engine came from.However in modern cars there a systems in place to speed up this process ie teh webasto in range rovers.
If you remove this thermostats this will hapen
It takes longer for you Engine to reach max temp to function %100
Your cooling fan wont know when to stop blowing air(Cold water might be trapped where its sensor is and it thinks the Engine do not need cooling) thats overheating,
Imagine running on cold Engine Oil.
Now to quench the myth about Nigeria temperature, try the temperatures in California Desert, some places in Italy ans southern France and spain.Is Nigeria hotter than the UAE?

BALLOSKI:
every reduction in inflation is news worthy.

not realy, the one that only applies to the stock exchange is of no value to the man on the street!

nickxtra:
Maybe, but that's not exactly my understanding of the message.

It actually says that in the write up from where it says *We inherited a tax policy of five years from past administration *

CaptainFM1:
There's no risk at all. Everything can be renegotiated.

This is true.the UAE used the same system of tax holiday to build thier economy . But I think the 5 yrs was good this 10 yrs long shaaa

nickxtra:
Plus the 5 years for the Lagos project, making 10 years.

Nop you got that wrong
the policy b4 now was for a max of 5 years tax holiday per person . The FG of today has increased it to 10 years max per person thats the new policy signed . Hence forth you can get up to 10 years break .

nickxtra:
Dangote was given a 5 year tax holiday for the construction of Obajana-Lokoja Rd. Google it, please.

I thought you said his 5 yrs was extended to 10 yrs .

nickxtra:
Dangote already has an existing 5 year tax for a different project already agreed to with the previous government. The present government only added another 5 years to make it 10 years.

realy ?
Link plz!!

mrvitalis:
This is a good move

Time for Igbo leaders to get Igbo owned banks to take over south east roads instead of paying tax that's Hausa and Yorubas would share

Next oil

Capital oil

Zenith

Uba

Fidelity

Union
Diamond
Mtn
Curtex
What's project can you do for your people in place of tax

But Igbo leaders they fall my hand

I'm tempted but I would not join politics( I need to make good money Jor )

Dangote village and town people too go dey vex u to say he dey build road for Lagos not him own state and town .

It wouldn't be a problem if they didn't hypocritically criticize others for doing same or less.
I remember patience Jonathan wearing native clothes for the most

Mama peace nah made in Okrika she dey wear nothing do that woman
