What should I do if I experience a gas leak?

If you suspect a gas leak, it is important to take immediate action for your safety. First, you should leave the area right away and ensure that others do the same. Avoid using any electrical devices, including lights, as they could create a spark. Do not attempt to locate the source of the leak, and refrain from using lighters or matches in the vicinity. Once you have reached a safe distance, contact the appropriate authorities or gas company.
