In Indonesia, a critical situation unfolds as a truck transporting gas cylinders catches fire due to an overheated exhaust. The driver’s quick thinking to move the vehicle to an open area and unload the cylinders averted a major disaster, though it led to a dramatic chain of explosions.

The incident highlights the importance of using specialized vehicles for transporting hazardous materials. In this case, a dirt truck with rear-facing exhaust was used instead of a vehicle designed with safety features to prevent such incidents, illustrating the crucial need for strict adherence to safety protocols in the transportation sector.
๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ณ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ง๐ถ๐ฝ๐:
1. Utilize vehicles specifically designed for transporting hazardous materials.
2. Ensure all transport vehicles are regularly maintained and equipped with safety features.
3. Train drivers on emergency procedures and safe handling of hazardous goods.
4. Conduct regular safety audits on transport routes to minimize risks near residential areas.
5. Advocate for stringent regulations on the transportation of potentially dangerous goods.
