 Lorry fuel caps left open - Crankcase
Article in local press I won't bother to link because it's trivial and so poorly written my head has fallen off, but my outraged fingers can still ask this here.

A sentence reads:

"The skidding vehicles may happen as lorries spill fuel on it regularly because the vehicles tilt to take the sharp bend and have partially open fuel caps for safety reasons."

I'm ignorant. What safety reasons mean you leave the fuel cap partially open on a lorry? And whatever they are, why isn't it the same for a car?
