Description

Because of the increasing price of petroleum products, some Filipino tricycle and jeepney drivers opt to purchase their gasoline from side street shops on a per-bottle basis. The Pepsi bottles seen below contain a liter of gasoline, ready to be purchased or delivered using the sidecar-style bicycle below. However, this setup could result in a fire, if not handled carefully. (date: 2005-02-26)
