Why do I get feeling that this incident was staged. Well planned for.

I actually saw this car blast down Richmond in TO last week......sounded great! What a shame.

You need a build up of vapour and ignition source such as spark to accomplish this. These conditions are possible while fuelling any car especially in dry conditions like we have here now.....that's why aircraft are grounded before fuelling; before the nozzle comes close to the filler

....I always tend to avoid that gas station
