A container, especially a fuel tank for a motor vehicle, having a top wall and opposite side walls, comprising a plurality of conduits for connecting the interior of the container with the atmosphere, each of the conduits having a first, substantially horizontally extending section, when the container is in its normal substantially horizontal position and extending from an opening in the interior at one side wall toward the opposite side wall, the first section merging into a substantially vertically extending second section of the respective conduit at a sharply bent portion thereof, the conduits being of such dimension that, upon inclination of the container from the normal position, gases forming in the interior rise to the respective bent portion of those conduits, the first sections of which point downwardly, and that the liquid level in those conduits the first sections of which point upwardly is prevented from being lifted out of the second sections of the conduits. |
