Surely many drivers know the unpleasant sensation when, getting out of the car, you are electrocuted. And okay, if it happened once, but to constantly experience this is not pleasant enough.

It is curious that in winter, when leaving the car, the current almost does not break through, but when the temperature creeps up in the spring, then it starts to "spark" more and more often. It's not about heating the air, but about static electricity, which occurs when we fidget on the seat with much fewer clothes and with exposed parts of the body. As soon as the car stops, the door opens and the driver grabs the metal body with his hand, he is immediately shocked.

Traditionally, special strips or antistatic sprays are used to combat static electricity. As for the stripes, not all drivers want to hang them, considering them a relic of the past. And to tell the truth, they do not always save from discharges. The spray does its job. But if you use the car every day, then the spray can last for a maximum of a week.

It remains to understand how to get rid of the accumulated electricity. The first method is quite simple, it was used by our fathers and grandfathers. It is enough to correctly and consistently carry out the algorithm of actions. The whole point here is to touch the body before getting out of the car completely. Put your feet on the ground without getting up from the seat, and only then grab the door. Grounding will occur and there will be no discharge.

The second method is based on the same principle as the first. After opening the door, take the ignition key to the metal part and touch it to the body. And again, grounding will do its job, and the machine will not be shocked.
