I wonder, was there no alternative for those drivers short of passing by those flames? I guess, if you didn't know what was burning, you wouldn't know the potential for danger, but still . . . damn.

So you have to pass quickly. Ive passed car or building fires like that. But never a gas station.

Somebody either did something illegal & stupid like defeat safety measure, or it was on purpose.
Gas stations don't just blow up.
