"Firefighters allowed the monstrous blaze to burn itself out. McCall said this is the safest approach to dealing with the materials involved."


No kidding?

Gee-whiz; could it be that a person would need an extremely heat-resistant suit to even get "close" to 8000 gallons of burning gasoline, which would fry a body to ashes?

"Explosion" they say? No way, else the driver would be a crispy-critter.

Fact: Gasoline rarely explodes, it just burns like the fires of hades.

Nah, wadda I know, and old tanker-yanker and all, right?

Keep pulling those oh-so "safe" tankers, for 17 bucks per hour, youngsters !!! :hysterical:

Thankfully, no one was killed in this accident.
