Multiple Vehicle Fires Cause Traffic Disruptions

Multiple vehicle fires have caused significant traffic disruptions across various locations in the U.S. In Escambia County, Florida, a semitractor-trailer carrying cranberry juice overturned after the driver fell asleep, leading to a multi-vehicle accident that closed I-10 for nearly two hours, although no injuries were reported. Meanwhile, a dumpster truck fire on the MacArthur Causeway in Miami blocked all westbound lanes, causing heavy traffic delays with no injuries noted. In Scottsdale, Arizona, a flatbed semi caught fire, prompting traffic diversions and potential hazmat concerns, but the driver escaped unharmed. Additional traffic issues arose on the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge in New York due to a vehicle fire, and a similar incident on the I-40 Mississippi River bridge in Memphis halted westbound traffic without confirmed injuries. Authorities are advising drivers to seek alternate routes while crews manage the fire incidents.
