Per state officials, another person who was behind the tanker somehow managed to slam right into it … causing the entire vehicle to ignite and explode, with fire going everywhere.
That’s where our video picks up … seconds after the crash, and just moments before the flames shoot out onto the rest of the freeway … with oncoming traffic not able to dodge it. The driver from this dashcam footage actually cruises right through … but was freaked out.
You can tell the entire scary scene crept up on him out of nowhere … and before he had time to react or swerve to avoid it — he was right in the thick of the massive blaze.
