Drove through the area sand there were two burned vehicles on wreckers and one had a smashed in front end, we thought it was a head on, smell of gas and fire trucks with YRB directing traffic
We were in the line-up coming from the north for about an hour; this was about 10 to 6. When they finally got the one truck loaded, you could see it was totally scorched. Second truck had burned front and smashed in; back end looked okay; I wonder if he drove into the burned one. When they let traffic through from the south, everyone was in such a hurry; driving full speed away in a 60 km zone; people will never learn!
