In Western Australia a town was evacuated due to a truck fire.

A truck transporting amonium nitrate caught fire about half a kilometre from a town that caused the residents to hunker down and prepare for evacuation.

This seems pretty serious, that on a flat plain a town 500 metres away was prepared for Armageddon.

Ammonium nitrate, only goes high ordinance, if a shock wave goes through it. Do a search for fuel oxidizers.

Makes me wonder what happened to that radioactive thing that fell through a bolt hole or something on a truck outback .

If you light it in fire, however, it does release some pretty nasty gas.
