[Reporter Liu Xiaoxin/Changhua Report] The smoke is so big!

The Changhua-Shengang section of Taiwan No. 61 was suddenly covered with smoke this afternoon, making passers-by and cars slow down, only to find out that there was a weed fire outside the Wuxi embankment under the Xibin Expressway. On the way up, the police also arrived at the scene to conduct traffic control and maintain road safety.

The No. 1 Fire Brigade of Changhua County stated that the weed fire occurred at about 1 pm today, and the weeds outside the Wuxi embankment caught fire. Due to the large fire area, although 4 fire trucks were dispatched to rescue, the smoke still lingered. Driven by the wind, it floated up to the port extension section of the Xibin Expressway, and immediately contacted the police to arrive at the scene for traffic, and the weed fire was also brought under control.

However, passers-by and cars all said that because of the strong smoke, passers-by and cars were frightened, and their vision was blocked in front of them, so they had to reduce the speed of the whole line to ensure safety.

Later, it turned out that it was a ground weed fire under Xibin, and it was several kilometers away. Fortunately, it was controlled early to make the smoke smaller. Otherwise, the traffic flow in Xibin was heavy on weekdays, and it was dominated by large vehicles. , the consequences are hard to imagine.
