Motorola and others, including petroleum industry organizations, have studied mobile phone use at gas/petrol stations (3 page PDF; 16 KB) at length. There has been no documented incident anywhere in the world where the use of a mobile phone or portable radio was found to cause a fire or explosion at a gasoline station. Additionally, there is no credible reason, based on technical evaluation, to believe that the use of these products poses any such hazard.
