The video shows the exact moment when the cylinders begin to fall off the truck, creating a chaotic scene. A white car, which was closely following the truck, is seen making a quick decision by reversing at high speed, in an attempt to escape the unexpected obstacle.


Fortunately, the Municipal Guard of Diadema reported that despite the potential danger, no cylinder exploded, and there were no reports of injuries during the incident. The incident raised questions about the safety of transporting potentially hazardous cargo and the readiness of drivers in emergency situations.
