I have never EVER seen a car catch fire crashing.

He ran over a hydrant - it could have torn up his fuel lines and provided the spark.
The question is, what was he running from, or who was controlling his car?
Within a block of where I live a car crashed into a tree at relatively high speed (failed to make a 90 degree turn in the road) and the whole car burned up, unfortunately with the driver inside. People tried to extract the driver but heat was too intense.
There was another crash not too long ago nearby where the car caught fire with the driver still inside.
Much less be completely engulfed from front to rear within seconds of the impact.
