On Sunday morning, a truck transporting a tanker of gasoline overturned on the I-75 at I-375 in Detroit, creating a massive plume of smoke and causing $410,000 worth of damage to the overpass.

Fortunately, the accident resulted in no injuries — just this crazy cell phone video of the smoke. According to The Detroit News, the Michigan State Police Department’s Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division will also be conducting a compliance review of truck driver’s employer.
