Tried but It keeps getting tangled in stuff, and i trip on it all the time too, and the cops complained as pedestrians were getting caught up and dragged, with the one on the car.

I am female and I don't ever recall being shocked getting out of car. If I did it was that long along I have managed to completely forget about it lol. I do wear dresses occasionally but not as often as I used to.

Could you run an EV Gpg. there might be something there for you.

Slip on shoes will do it, happens with Supermarket trolleys too.

+ on post 2.
Usually happens to me as summer kicks in and I start wearing flip-flops. Might also coincide with wearing a T-shirt.

Somebody told me the electric shocks are caused by having tyres with nylon belt in them.
Is this true?
Op check your tyres.

Earth strap should work.
Once at night I saw a car with one, it had a gizmo in it that sparked every time it earthed, like a small florescent bulb/camera flash bulb, japanese writing on it and on a jap import car.

I got a number of static shocks from a Nissan Primera once. Same clothes as I wear in every other csr. I suspect it's the upholstery material that is the problem. ?

A bus is an electronic pathway so will always have a conductor.
