Truck Fire Extinguishers: Safety on Every Journey

Just the other day, my friend, Mr. Tuan from Cau Giay, Hanoi, recounted a harrowing experience while driving his Hyundai Porter truck loaded with fruits on Lang Road. Suddenly, he smelled a strange burning odor and saw smoke billowing from the back of the truck in his rearview mirror. Panicked, he pulled over and frantically searched but… couldn’t find a fire extinguisher anywhere. Luckily, a kindhearted motorbike taxi driver passing by lent him a mini fire extinguisher, and they managed to put out the fire. Recalling the incident, Mr. Tuan still shudders, thankful that the fire was extinguished in time, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Mr. Tuan’s story reminded me of Mr. Nguyen Van Thanh, a traffic safety expert from the Vietnam Truck Research Institute, who once said: “Trucks are like mobile homes, harboring many fire and explosion risks. Owning a quality car fire extinguisher is like equipping yourself with a lucky charm on every road.”
