For those who have no idea about what's being talked about here, here are links to two articles (with photos and video) from the L.A. Times and My Desert.com:
[www.latimes.com]
[www.mydesert.com]
You can search "montebello tanker truck fire" for other links.
For clarity, the incident happened east of downtown Los Angeles on what's called the 60 Freeway (sometimes called the Pomona Freeway) in Montebello, under the Paramount Blvd., overcrossing.
What's not clear is why the driver did not, or could not, move the truck off the roadway and onto the shoulder clear of the overpass, even if the brakes had locked up on the pull trailer, instead of abandoning it in a traffic lane.
