    Im sure someone can post the story here from somewhere. About the 277mm on the Nbound side a tanker exploded……what a mess!!! I could see the smoke going south on 65 for at least 25 miles…...

    There's another thread about a tanker explosion on 65 in Tennessee yesterday. Driver did not make it. But it's really something to have two tanker explosions in less than 48 hours on the same interstate.

    In contrast to the Canadian O2 tanker driver, this non-professional expletive left the trailer attached, to go up in a fiery explosion and make the day worse for everyone.

    Said he was on the shoulder, maybe he broken down and couldn't drop it? Either way I can't say I blame him.
