I saw a pickup truck run into a train at ~60 mph. 30 seconds later it was completely engulfed in flames. Sometimes ICE vehicles do catch fire very quickly (still not an explosion though).
- HeyLaughingBoy 6y agoThat's hardly surprising. You have a high-speed frontal collision, a fuel line gets ruptured and high-pressure gasoline comes squirting out onto a hot engine (bonus points if it hits the exhaust manifold) with plenty of airflow. Under those circumstances a fire is far from unlikely. But that wasn't what OP was talking about.
