Gen 3 catches fire before tollbooth

[camry man68]

In NJ before the NOPI Nationals a gen3 Camry caught fire at a tollbooth. Luckily I chose not to take that route to get to NOPI and I took a different one, getting me there on time. These pictures were not taken by me.

The driver is lucky it was before he paid the toll. Otherwise he would have paid for use of the toll road but not gotten to use it.

oh shit...that makes me cringe.....

but i'm sure he DID NOT maintain his car lol

what makes an engine fire anyway?

[geoff5093]

Wow! I've seen several car fires before but I still cringe at the sight.

[shajbot]

Aw shhjt man, anyone know what happened?

I see he has smoked windows.


Meh... I could fix that. If it doesn't burn past the firewall, it's salvageable!

Wow, that reminds me of a gen 3 camry on I83 north bound that was running of a spare, and the spare fell off while it was moving. It was on the front left.

Wow, that would really suck! I wonder what caused it.
