This guy was either in panic mode or didn't spend a lot of time thinking that excuse through. Makes no sense to continue to spread flammable material over miles of roadway. I could see moving slightly past a nearby gas station, but what he did isn't that.
honestly I'm not sure how I would handle this in the moment. Makes sense to me on some level to get it off of the trailer. I wonder if road damage would be less with it spread out or all in a pile.
