You guys probably saw this but I found it humorous.

Weird, I know of another live floor waste hauler that went up in flames in a similar fashion.

Had a smaller garbage truck up near here a couple years ago catch fire.

They said someone had put coals from a fireplace into the garbage bin and the truck dumped the bin. Next thing the driver knew the alarms were going off.

News report said he drove straight to the closest fire hall and dumped the load in the parking lot. Saved the truck.

Crazy thing is they said that these new trucks have cameras that record every bin dump so they knew exactly what house they problem bin was scooped at

I am amazed at how much garbage still gets trucked to the USA from Toronto, just read last week that an agreement was being renewed.
I surprised the people in Michigan aren't blockading the borders, and telling us to dump it in our own country.
