Kotseng bumabaybay sa EDSA-Ortigas, nagliyab; umaandar habang nasusunog

2 days ago

Nagliyab ang isang kotse sa bahagi ng EDSA Ortigas Flyover kagabi na kitang umaandar pa habang nasusunog. Nakababa ang driver matapos abisuhan ng mga kapwa motorista kaugnay ng tumatagas umanong gasolina. Walang nadamay sa insidente bagama’t nagdulot ito ng pagbigat ng daloy ng trapiko.

00:00Good evening, Luzon Visayas and Mindanao.

00:05A car crashed in Edsa Ortigas' flyover last night.

00:10It was seen driving while being burned.

00:14The driver got out of the car after being attacked by his fellow motorists,

00:17accompanied by a man who was asking for gasoline.

00:19No one was injured in the incident, even though it resulted in heavy traffic.

00:25Maris Umali is on the scene.

00:31The driver of this car was caught on CCTV in Edsa Ortigas' flyover northbound

00:36after being attacked by a few motorists.

00:39He glanced at the back of the car, which suddenly flared up.

00:42He tried to approach the front of the car, but it didn't move,

00:46and slowly walked away.

00:48While the car was flaring up, it was seen on the CCTV that it was moving.

00:52It even crossed the road.

00:54The motorists were stopped in the lane because of the car's flaring up.

01:00A few moments later, a few firemen arrived to put out the fire.

01:05While the police were trying to evacuate the motorists,

01:07the surrounding area was covered with smoke.

01:09The car was burned to ashes.

01:13According to the driver, he was on his way home from Pasay

01:16when he was attacked by a fellow motorist.

01:18He was told that the car's gasoline was leaking.

01:20He couldn't do anything, but the car was on fire.

01:23No one was injured in the incident,

01:25even though it caused heavy traffic to Edsa Shaw Boulevard in Mandaluyong City.

01:32According to Quezon City Police District Station 12,

01:35the driver of the car was hit on his left and right foot.

01:40The first aid was immediately provided by the medical team of the MMDA.

01:44Currently, the PNP and Bureau of Fire Protection are helping the investigation

01:49on the cause of the car's flaring up.

01:51According to the Automobile Association of the Philippines,

01:54there are three possible causes of the car's flaring up.

01:56First, the gas leaking.

01:59Second, the electrical fire or the flaring of the current inside.

02:03The third one is possibly the catalytic converter overheating

02:07or the engine overheating.

02:09Usually, the vehicle fire is caused by a modification that is not proper.

02:18It's like a gasoline fire because there's a gasoline trail while it's rolling on the flyover

02:25and there's a gas fire on the ground.

02:28It means to say a fuel line has leaked

02:31or even by mere gravity that the tank was emptying onto the road.

02:36And it flared up.

02:38They remind us that if the car is flaring up or has a smell,

02:41don't continue driving.

02:43There should be a presence of mind.

02:45Stop the car.

02:48Get out of the car.

02:52Don't wait. Get everybody out of the car.

02:58I think the driver did a very nice job of exiting his vehicle on time.

03:02So much panic and so much to attend to in that emergency.

03:06You cannot blame this guy.

03:14But if you don't know how to do it,

03:16I will tell you, don't try.

03:17Because usually, when there's a fire under the hood,

03:23the hood will be opened.

03:25When the hood is opened like that,

03:26that just feeds more oxygen into the fire.

03:29That fire will just grow bigger and bigger.

03:35Regular preventive maintenance.

03:38And only get accessories and modifications that are from a trained professional.

03:46For Jima Integrated News, Maris Umali for 24 Hours.
