First, the cause of the fire: the right rear tire of the vehicle burst, the vehicle rolled over and the container caught fire.
In Zibo, Shandong Province, a van loaded with plastic particles and bleach burst its right rear wheel while driving on expressway in Yin Qing, causing the vehicle to roll over and then catch fire. Moreover, some surveillance videos on the Internet show that the red truck first rolled over after the rear wheel smoked, and then the fire became higher and higher. When the vehicles behind them saw it, they all stopped suddenly. Because they were far away from the truck, they could avoid it in time. Moreover, in this accident, because this light van collided with another heavy-duty semi-trailer tractor, the two cars collided, which further caused a fire, so only these two cars were burned in the end.
Second, the police and the fire department launched rescue.
After the accident, on the 3rd, the police of Zhangdian Brigade, the fifth detachment of the Traffic Police Corps of Shandong Provincial Public Security Department patrolled to the vicinity of the accident, so they immediately found the police situation and immediately cooperated with the fire, road and expressway business units to carry out accident investigation and rescue work. Finally, with the joint efforts of everyone, the fire was put out, and the road surface resumed normal driving an hour later. Fortunately, the rescue was timely, so the accident damaged two trucks and caused no casualties. The cause of the accident was that the right rear wheel of the truck had a flat tire. Because the right rear wheel has a flat tire, friction generates heat, which is easy to cause fire. In addition, the truck is loaded with some plastic particles and bleach, so it is prone to fire, which is probably related to these factors.
