We all knew it would happen eventually...

Was a Muslim driving it?

Having a bad day and decided to detonate his bomber jacket?

A friend was driving her car a few weeks ago and noticed smoke coming out from under the hood when they stopped at a light. She grabbed her little girl out of the back seat and got out of the car and it literally burst into flames before she was more than a few feet away from it. If she hadn’t gotten out immediately, they would both have been dead by then.

It can happen. Someone told me that it’s not the gas, but the brake fluid that catches fire if there’s a fire in the engine. It can travel to the gas tank, but the part of the fire that engulfs the passenger compartment from the engine doesn’t come from the gas tank initially. Pretty scary. The taxi driver is lucky!

Since this happened in New York, the car exploded in slow motion, and people were able to outrun the fireball.
