The was travelling down Sturt Highway and got a blow out, causing it to pull off the highway onto this road.
The tyre caught fire, and the truckie tried to put the fire out with his fire extinguisher, but was unsuccessful.
The fire spread rapidly and the truck's trailers were soon engulfed.
The radiant heat caused nearby grass to catch fire, so a couple of passers-by (including myself) then tried to prevent the grass fire from spreading out of control, whilst waiting for the CFS to arrive.
