As can be seen from the online video, at that time, in a expressway road section, the fire was quite huge and the smoke was rolling. Obviously, the vehicle and its cargo exploded. After the accident, the local public security fire department and the department of the high-speed management company also quickly rushed to the scene to carry out rescue and disposal work. It took nearly three hours from the accident to the scene fire being extinguished, and then the road section resumed normal traffic. At present, the accident is under further investigation and handling.
The local police in Lu 'an, Anhui Province also issued such a notice in response to the vehicle deflagration incident in expressway. It turned out that at 7 o'clock on the day of the incident, on the road section of expressway, the truck driver Hu Mou drove a heavy-duty semi-trailer tractor loaded with silicone oil to rear-end the heavy-duty dump truck driven by Ding Mou, causing the silicone oil loaded in his vehicle to overflow, which eventually led to a fire in the vehicle, causing one person to be slightly injured at the scene.
The silicone oil loaded on Hu trucks belongs to industrial products, not dangerous goods. The serious follow-up accident caused this time is purely the danger caused by the rear-end collision of the vehicle while driving.
Fortunately, there were no serious casualties in this accident, which is also a great misfortune after all. Here, I have to warn the truck drivers who drive on the expressway every day that they must be careful and ensure a safe distance, otherwise they will cause traffic accidents because of their negligence, which will eventually lead to both money and people. This is a tragedy after all.
