Video captures the fire spreading like wildfire and rapidly engulfing the entire bus and spreading across the asphalt and into the grassy embankment.
At first, incoming traffic was able to navigate around the fiery blaze, but after the fuel spillage, the flames impeded all three lanes of traffic, bringing traffic to a halt.
Local media reported that the cause of the fire was an electrical mechanical problem that was quickly put out by firefighters.
No one was injured during the incident.
