South Carolina’s Interstate 26 had a serious scare recently when three tractor-trailer rigs were involved in a fiery crash closing the highway for hours. The driver who caused the accident was charged with driving too fast after hitting a car that was stopped on the shoulder of the road. This first crash left a large amount of debris on the road. Soon after, a large tractor-trailer came along and made contact with the debris. This inevitably caused the tractor-trailer to light up in flames, which ended up spreading to another part of the road. An additional tractor-trailer hit the flames on the road.
