Like the milk truck tanker on The Simpsons that overturned and exploded? I wonder if it blowed up good.

Good thing they didn't put that explosive plant at Longworth, Heehee! Can't have a plant like that in such a dangerous location.

We don�t know the circumstances in this, but have you ever been driving in the city late at night when they are removing snow.
I have has on more than 1 occasion, these loaders back through a intersection on a red light while mine was green. Some of them think they can do what ever.
