Burning dustcart

I pulled up behind one of my colleagues only 30 seconds after he saw smoke coming out from behind the cab. Within a minute the cab was completely gutted. Luckily there were no other crew members apart from the driver: unluckily the driver had left his bag in there. At least noone was hurt.
Please excuse the swearing (Ive cut a lot of it out) as the driver was still in shock!

@Komotau4691 Because they need to be close to put the fire out. They are also brave, so do not mind some danger. Firemen have no authority to close a road.

Lucky you did'nt work for Veolia.They don't give a f*** about their employees well being. They'd blame u without waiting 4 any explanation

My dad was the driver in this video, The cause was thought to be an hydraulic leak on to the exhaust but the Fire service was convinced it was an electrical fault. Apologise for the swearing. The guy who recorded this was a work collegue and stopped to see if my dad was okay.
