Incident 103/2010

Whilst travelling back from the previous incident our BM2 vehicle stopped briefly at Blackburn services on the M65 motorway.

Upon leaving, whilst still in the services (in the petrol station area) our BM2 crew noticed a commercial vehicle with a wheel fire.

Our team members assisted the vehicle driver with extinguishing the fire using the petrol stations fire extinguishers.

Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service were obviously called to this incident but thankfully the prompt action of the vehicle driver and our team members had successfully extinguished the fire.
