What are the safety risks of driving with a cracked fuel cap in Pakistans heat and heavy traffic?

In cities like Lahore and Multan, where temperatures exceed 45°C, fuel vapor pressure builds up. A cracked o r loose cap can release fumes, creating a fire risk in congested traffic conditions.

In hot cities like Multan o r Lahore, fuel vapor can build up pressure in the tank. A cracked o r loose cap may release these vapors into the air, increasing the risk of fire o r explosion in heavy traffic o r near open flames like roadside tea stalls o r welding shops.
