Safety first!

A TikTokker posted a video and showed viewers why it’s definitely NOT a good idea to throw lithium batteries in the garbage.

The video shows a garbage truck that had smoke pouring out of it and the truck dumped a huge load of trash onto the street.

The text overlay on the video reads, “So my neighbor in the white house didn’t know that lithium batteries don’t belong in the trash.”

Lesson learned!

Here’s the video.
