    It's hard to second-guess a driver... But really? THAT'S where he decided to stop?

    Stopping there probably turned a million dollar fire into a 10 million dollar fire...

    Not to mention that it turned into a harder to fight fire as well.

    Thats what the news said uh? Im impressed they would make up such a blatant lie and then have the guts to say it on national TV if they don't know what happened they should not make cheet up! Makes me wonder what other "news" are made up....
