It all happened yesterday afternoon on I-75 near Rochester Road, a fuel tanker lost control, hit the divider and exploded…
the tanker driver hit the center median wall of northbound I-75 near the Big Beaver Road overpass, and immediately caught fire.
Mdot says that they will need to completely redo the road after this because of the heat from the explosion.
Here are a few videos from the event:

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
