Suddenly, the back of the car emitted white smoke; I quickly pulled over to the right and stopped the car, the moment I got off it burst into flames. Originally, the car was giving alerts saying that it “needs service.” I was about to head to the service center today, but then this happened.

The accident took place during the morning rush hour and many passing by witnessed the horrifying scene. The driver explained he had received several warning alerts from the car and had already scheduled a check-up at the service center. But as he was driving he noticed white smoke coming out of the back of the car and he quickly stopped the car and jumped out just in time.

When we arrived on the scene, the fire was quite big, after hosing it down the fire was under control.

Why the car suddenly caught on fire and whether it is directly related to the service warnings remains under investigation.

熊熊火舌,從車體竄出,橘紅色火光伴隨大量濃煙直竄天際!

整輛車瞬間陷入火海,過程中還一度傳出爆炸聲。

“突然(車的)後面有白煙,我就趕快右轉停下來,剛下車就發現有火花,就趕快出來。原本(車的)電腦就有跑出說動力被鎖住了,叫我回去保養廠,約今天回保養廠,哪知道早上發生這種情況”

當時正值上班尖峰時間,現場車流非常多,路過民眾也拍下驚險畫面,據駕駛表示,近期儀表板就曾跳出警示異常,他已經預約回廠檢查,卻在途中,從後照鏡發現,後座冒出大量白煙,他趕緊將車停靠路邊,跳車逃生,才幸運逃過一劫。

“到達現場的時候火勢滿大的,經佈一水線之後,目前火勢控制”

車輛為甚麼突然自燃,跟先前儀表板出現異常警示有沒有關係,還有待火調人員進一步調查釐清。至少人是平安的!
