Today (May 15), a small truck in the south area of the Yangcheng Beihu Service Area of the Suzhou Ring Expressway suddenly caught fire. It took only 11 minutes for the staff in the service area to quickly extinguish the fire, and the driver's cargo and personal safety were preserved.
At 11:24 today, the front wheel of a small truck with a license plate number starting with Su D suddenly caught fire, and the smoke was everywhere in an instant, and the fire was rapid. The security guards patrolling the scene immediately evacuated the onlookers. The person in charge of the service area also called the police and activated the "Fire Emergency Plan" at the first time. At 11:35 a.m., the fire was extinguished. At 11:40, after the firefighters arrived at the scene, they took measures to prevent the scene from re-igniting.
Afterwards, the driver, Master Zhou, said in shock: "The car was loaded with about 1,000 catties of shrimp, which was going to be sent to Shanghai from Jintan, but I didn't expect a fire, but fortunately, there were staff in the service area to help put out the fire." Once the fire spreads out of control, tens of thousands of dollars worth of goods will be completely burned. Looking at the staff in the service area who were soaked in sweat and helped extinguish the fire, Master Zhou thanked him repeatedly. (Correspondent Huang Yongjie)
