Hi Dave
There are several issues though non of them have I been able to trace back to the source to see the actual law or safety ruling (do a google search on ban on metal jerry cans you will get a huge number of hits). I have tried to track this down for our club newsletter without success. As I understand it there are a number of reasons why “Jerry Cans” are being or have been banded in some places. The issues include the following: 1. They do not have a child proof cap. 2. They are not a vapor proof design. 3. They want to abolish carrying fuel cans on the rear of vehicles like Jeeps because of the fire hazard in a rear end collision 4. That plastic is safer as a fuel container Cheers Phil

This thread has a picture of what the true flimsies are. You know they are flimsy when they come in a wooden crate. The picture is about 1/2 way down
