Call your local poison center. Ask them about lethal dosages.

Average lethal dosage, ingestion or absorption, for your average 70kg adult:
Gasoline: 115-470mL
Methanol: 60-240mL

See the difference?

Another problem is that methanol fires are literally invisible. You cannot see them. Gasoline fires are blatantly obvious. For this reason, IndyCars switched to ethanol from methanol.

I think the methanol for cars would be blended with gasoline. It is unlikely that there would be a fire that did not involve both fuels. In that case you wouldn't have to worry about the invisible fire.
