A tractor-trailer carrying toilet paper caught fire overnight in Hutchins, according to local officials.
The driver of the truck is OK, authorities told WFAA.
The fire shut down all lanes of westbound Interstate 20 around 4:15 a.m. near Interstate 45 in Hutchins, according to the Texas Department of Transportation.
The toilet paper, which appeared to be large rolls typical of commercial use, was scattered across the roadway. TxDOT officials said the tractor-trailer and the load of toilet paper "burned extensively," estimating it would take authorities "some time" to clean up.

...estimating it would take authorities "some time" to clean up. Without any toilet paper, why yes, yes it will...

A friend of my Dad’s lost an entire load when he flicked his cigarette stubb out the window and it got sucked into the cargo on his truck and set the mover’s blankets on fire. Looked like a freaking Saturn V rocket going horizontally over the Poplar Street Bridge in St. Louis.

I can’t think of anything that would go up faster than toilet paper.
