As soon as my 10 hours were up I left. That was at 1 AM EDT. About an hour north of Charlotte, NC on I-77 traffic was backed up and not moving when a semi truck caught fire. I got to the stopped traffic shortly after it happened. The cops had the Interstate shut down. The fire trucks were arriving at the same time as I came to a stop. I was only about 2/10 mile from it but couldn't see anything because of all the stopped traffic ahead of me. I heard one of the tires explode. We sat there not moving for just about 30 minutes. Once that was over I continued on. Made it to the Daily terminal in Jacksonville, FL for the night. 504 miles today. I'll deliver in the morning. I'm tired!!! Good night.
