whatta pussssssssss 
Thats actually the first thing i noticed also, The truck crashes and it explodes and dude starts to run off motioning at the passenger to get out and run.
I guess the passenger didn't mean that much to the driver?
If it was his wife or someone close then damn he doesn't know the meaning of protecting or saving your loved ones

there was an interview with that couple showed on the news a few days ago...she was saying that she looked back and saw the flames and totally forgot how to open the suv door and was caught trying to get out of the seatbelt...
nice to know he was at least safe, huh

Can't always speak for the outta-stateas though! (notice that the driver was from New Hampshire)
It was only five exits from the state line to get to Saco, and only 31 to get to Augusta (far less if you take the turnpike). What happens if someone misses their exit??!
You can speak Canadian, eh?

That happens with Texas as well. People think that we all have Longhorns in our backyards. Most of us don't, because they get tar all over themselves from rubbing against the oil derricks and track it in the house. 
Sometimes what you see is misleading...
We met an aquaintance of my wife's at a local restaurant last December. This woman was with a guy from England she'd met over the internet. In traveling around the southern parts of the state, he'd noticed a lot of people had snowmobiles in their yards, and wondered if conditions were so bad here in winter that they were the only way to "move about". I couldn't help but laugh when I told him "No, they're only for recreation."
