🔴 FACT CHECK: FALSE

🚨 A viral social media post claims that gas cylinders have expiration dates and offers instructions on how to decode these dates.

However, according to the Marketing Manager of Litro Gas, gas cylinders do not have expiry dates. Instead, shroud plates display information like the cylinder standard reference, manufacturer name, identification marks, serial number, tare weight, tested and design pressures, tested date (month and year), ownership, and filling quantities. The tested date is shown in a simple month and year format without alphabetical codes. Litro Gas follows the SLS 1178:2013 quality standard, which does not require an expiry date. In some countries like India, codes indicate retesting dates for safety checks. The service life of a gas cylinder is influenced by usage, wear and tear, rusting, and atmospheric conditions, with regular inspections during refilling ensuring safety by identifying and removing damaged cylinders.

🔴FACT CHECK: MISLEADING

🚨In a viral social media video, a policewoman is seen asking a driver to provide documents proving ownership of a vehicle. The vehicle was being driven in the Sabaragamuwa Province but registered to an individual in the Central Province. The accompanying caption claims that driving vehicles between provinces without the owner present is unlawful.

However, a statement by Traffic Director SSP Manoj Ranagala clarifies that it is not mandatory to carry a vehicle registration certificate when traveling between provinces. According to SSP Ranagala, there are no restrictions on traveling between provinces or anywhere in the country if individuals possess the required documents, such as a valid driving license, insurance, and revenue license. SSP Ranagala emphasized that the person in the video misunderstood the situation. He explained that the female officer questioned the driver about the ownership transfer, as his license and insurance were under different names than the vehicle owner's.
