Imagine driving along in your truck minding your own business when you see smoke behind you, then you realise that your truck is on fire! Now that would certainly be unexpected!
This shot was taken back in February on the way home from work one Friday Afternoon. This prime mover has been completely destroyed by fire. I have no idea what caused it and from the burnt remains you see here, it looks like the fire started behind the cabin, maybe from the exhaust stacks. By the time I saw this, the fire was already put out and the truck dragged from the main road. You can see the melted rubber skid mark on the road.
In the second photo the Continental Tyres mobile unit is getting some wheels on the front of the truck so that it can be reverse towed.
