Unsafe for truck to carry fire extinguishers openly at the back

STOMPer Timid Heart wonders if it is safe for this pick-up truck to carry fire-extinguishers at the back.

Said the STOMPer:

"The other day when I was driving along the AYE near Portsdown Road, I saw this Nissan pickup fully laden with fire-extinguishers.

"I wonder what would happen if another car were to crash into the pickup from behind.

"Will there be an explosion?

"Some fire extinguishers contain sodium bicarbonate and some contain ammonium phosphate.

"Also it is advisable to use non-magnetic fire extinguishers if you are working near MRI machines in hospitals.

"I think prevention is better than cure."

Keywords: dangerous , dangerous machinery , fire hazard

Before posting, think 2 or 3 times or more times if your brain's too small. I agree with darkorbright said "yah... it will cause an explosion in your head."
