On Camera, Moment Oil Tanker Catches Fire On Ludhiana Flyover
A massive fire erupted on a flyover in Punjab's Ludhiana after an oil tanker was up in flames after it hit a divider. The flyover was covered with black smoke billowing from the oil tanker, which overturned after hitting the divider.
A video shot from a car which was a few metres away from the oil tanker captured the moment it caught fire. Two men were pulled out of the tanker and fuel was leaking from the overturned tanker. Three seconds after the men were taken out safely, the highly inflammable fuel caught fire and the entire tanker was up in flames in less than a second.
It was a close shave for those standing close to the oil tanker. Several vehicles crossed the tanker and a crowd gathered on the flyover to see the overturned truck. As of now, there have been no reports of any casu...

Gas shortage compounded by lack of tanker truck drivers to deliver
A shortage of qualified tanker truck drivers is making the current gasoline supply crisis worse, according to drivers and transportation companies in the D.C. metro region contacted by WUSA9.
"We had a driver shortage problem, and then with the pipeline going down, that compounded an already existing issue," said Mike Coraluzzo of Samuel Coraluzzo, Co and Torrissi Transport LLC.
"It kind of doubled down on on a bad situation and made it worse."
According to the National Tank Truck Carriers Association as many as 25% of the country’s fleet of tankers is parked.
Coraluzzo said drivers laid off when gas demand crashed during the COVID crisis found other easier jobs hauling freight and have not come back despite pay as high as $90,000 per year and good benefits.
Coraluzzo added ...

Owner of Oil Tanker Saw 'Flying Object' Before Attack in Strait of Hormuz
The U.S. political and military standoff with Iran hardened as conflicting narratives about a pair of attacks on tankers near the Persian Gulf stoked regional tensions and President Donald Trump vowed that Tehran will not be allowed to close a key oil shipping lane.
With U.S.-Iranian relations already at a low point, American officials released images they said showed that Iran was involved in a mine blast that forced the evacuation of a tanker near the entrance to the Gulf on Thursday. Tehran denied involvement, and the owner of the ship refuted the U.S. assertion that the blast came from a mine, adding to the confusion over what happened and who was responsible.
“Iran did do it and you know they did it,” Trump said Friday during a phone interview with Fox News. “You saw the boat at nig...

A shortage of qualified tanker truck drivers is making the current gasoline supply crisis worse, according to drivers and transportation companies in the D.C. metro region contacted by WUSA9.
"We had a driver shortage problem, and then with the pipeline going down, that compounded an already existing issue," said Mike Coraluzzo of Samuel Coraluzzo, Co and Torrissi Transport LLC.
"It kind of doubled down on on a bad situation and made it worse."
According to the National Tank Truck Carriers Association as many as 25% of the country’s fleet of tankers is parked.
Coraluzzo said drivers laid off when gas demand crashed during the COVID crisis found other easier jobs hauling freight and have not come back despite pay as high as $90,000 per year and good benefits.

Owner of Oil Tanker Saw 'Flying Object' Before Attack in Strait of Hormuz

The U.S. political and military standoff with Iran hardened as conflicting narratives about a pair of attacks on tankers near the Persian Gulf stoked regional tensions and President Donald Trump vowed that Tehran will not be allowed to close a key oil shipping lane.
With U.S.-Iranian relations already at a low point, American officials released images they said showed that Iran was involved in a mine blast that forced the evacuation of a tanker near the entrance to the Gulf on Thursday. Tehran denied involvement, and the owner of the ship refuted the U.S. assertion that the blast came from a mine, adding to the confusion over what happened and who was responsible.
“Iran did do it and you know they did it,” Trump said Friday during a phone interview with Fox News. “You saw the boat at night.”
While both sides have said they’re not looking for war, events have taken on a momentum of their own with U.S. and Iranian forces bolstering their military presence, raising the threat of a miscalculation. Even so, investors took the risk in their stride. Brent oil futures in London traded slightly lower on Friday at $61.15 a barrel, set for a weekly decline as concern about faltering demand outweighed those of Middle East tensions.
“I don’t think there’s any conclusive evidence that Iran was to blame,” Amrita Sen, chief oil analyst at Energy Aspects Ltd. in London, said on Bloomberg Television. “Clearly political tensions are ratcheting higher,” she said, while cautioning that other groups in the region could also have carried out the attacks. “We just don’t have enough proof right now,” said Sen.
In a press statement on Thursday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo ran through a list of recent incidents the U.S. has pinned on Iran, from previous tanker blasts to missiles fired at a Saudi airport to a car bomb in
Afghanistan.
“This is only the latest in a series of attacks instigated by the Islamic Republic of Iran and its surrogates against American and allied interests,” Pompeo said. He referred to an Iranian threat in April to interrupt the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, the only sea passage from the Persian Gulf to open ocean and one of the world’s most important energy-transit chokepoints, and said that Iran was “now executing on that promise.”
“They’re not going to be closing it,” Trump told Fox News.
Senior Trump administration officials said earlier Thursday that the U.S. was considering a number of responses, including the possibility of providing naval escorts to commercial ships traveling through the Strait of Hormuz. An American military response hasn’t been ruled out, they said, and all options are on the table.
Pompeo also said that U.S. efforts backed by Trump to get Iran to negotiate have been rebuffed by Iran’s leadership. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was on an “historic” trip to convince Iran to de-escalate and enter into talks, but was rejected by Iran’s supreme leader, who said he had no response to Trump.
Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani threw blame for the increased tensions at the U.S., saying Trump was using America’s “economic, financial and military capabilities as tools” in order to “destroy international rules and structures,” according to the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency on Friday.
