And that’s basically it!
following the incident the Kumamoto Fire Department was asked for opinion, and the spokesperson said that no, they do not advise people to continue driving their cars all the way to the fire department if they’re on fire.
Well that can't be right.
Not the onion, but is potatoes.
Flaming Potatoes at the Fire Station
Band name!

You thought "Flaming Potatoes at the Fire Station" Was a Good Band Name

I'll just put this here, with the other fire.
Seemed to me that one big pile of fire was better than two small piles of fire
Made in ~~England~~ Japan. Of course.
The imagery of flaming sweet potatoes! The driver frantically honking get out of the way!🤣
TIL that you can italicize emojis
👁️ Look, it's Eileen
I think the sight of the large fire on the truck went a long way toward making that happen. heh
Mmmm, baked potatoes…
If I had a nickel for every time I've read about a truck (I think the other one was also Japanese) on fire that drove itself to a fire station, I'd have 10¢. It's not much, but it's more than I would have expected.
I'm mostly amused because I expected this to the a story about the previous incident however many years ago it was, yet this one is new. heh.
Also, TIL there's trucks that drive around selling hot sweet potatoes..... ah, Japan.
Taking a game of hot potato to a whole other level
This just sounds delicious.
