Indiana garbage truck rams into overpass, explodes in fiery blast

That truck wasn’t even close to fitting.

I’m guessing, that was CNG-powered?

Sure hope the driver got out of that thing OK.

 

Wowww! That had to be a CNG powered garbage truck!!

 

Holy hell! Barbecued Garbage!!!! Can you imagine the lovely aroma?

 

it's a miracle the driver got out...!!!!

but i suspect, he's also out of a job.

 

You would think Republic, having experience with the route being that it's local, would warn the FNG that, "Hey, our trucks don't fit under that bridge." I would have assumed a local garbage truck has a pretty specific route.

When I went through orientation at the PST terminal, just outside of Chicago, they gave us a map with all the low bridges on it and warned that topping a trailer meant instant termination.

That guy is lucky to be alive.
