Semi-Truck Goes Up in Flames, Driver Escapes Unscathed

Thankfully, the truck's driver managed to separate the tractor unit in time, ensuring no injuries were reported. The cause of the flames remained unknown at the time of reporting. Contrary to initial concerns, the fire didn't involve a massive load of paint and varnish. The fire department ultimately discovered that only minimal quantities were involved.
