Propane Tank Explodes

When I first rounded the corner, there was hardly any smoke at all. In fact, I could have kept driving. However, I didn't want the thing to explode *just* as I was passing. So I pulled over... and backed up, to keep a good distance. This first image was taken when the propane or gas tank exploded, and sent a plume of flames coming out of the left side of the vehicle.
