A DELIVERY truck carrying butane canisters exploded along South Road Properties (SRP) in Talisay City, Cebu, around 6 a.m. Wednesday after colliding with a school bus.

According to Dustin Rojas, the bus was taking a left turn from SRP going to San Isidro Street in Talisay City to drop students at Asian College of Technology in Bulacao, when the truck, coming from Cebu City and going to the south, beat the red light, causing the collision.

"Nipugos og labang bisag caution or stop na," said Rojas.

Two students and the bus driver were injured in the incident.

Rojas said the truck tilted sideways and rolled over a car shop. The truck driver escaped from the scene, while the butane canisters that the truck carried exploded.

Firefighters were able to respond about six to 10 minutes after the collision.

The students were brought to the nearby Talisay District Hospital.

Rojas said the fire also burned a car parked at the car shop, while four other cars were also burned. Firefighters though were able to put out the fire.

Murag sakto ra na boss para diLi ma huOm ang gas if naay Leaking. Pero iresponsabLe Lang kaayo ni pagka transport (waLay hazard warning, no proper packaging, certification, etc). And another thing diLi napod na angay e transport ang mga refiLLEd cannisters kay diLi man jud na siya intended nga marefiLLan. Risky na jud na daAn sa pag refiLL pa Lang.

no boss. naa man closed type vans nga ventilated. mao bitaw ingon ko nga ventilated closed van. kay para man gud na dili malabayan ug mga sigarilyo. if closed type ang van but properly ventilated, then kanang mga leaking should be fine kay naa man ventilation pagawas. mura ganig exhaust. not sure though.

Ah yess. waLa ko kita sa imo ventilated closed van. MAs preferabLe jud nuOn na. Kana iLa gi buhat, pwede ra man pud na basta naA Lang safety measures LiKe sa pag transport sa LPG tanks. Kaso, kani man gud mga refiLLed canisters as far as i know are not approved by our govt. and sa kana paLang daAn diLi na siya safe.
