JAKARTA: Smoking while driving was hazardous for truck driver Ujang Sastra, 36.

His pickup truck caught fire on the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road Thursday after his still-burning cigarette butt he threw onto the road accidentally flew into the open cargo bed. It was loaded with papers.

Toll road officer Rosa told Okezone.com the patrolling officers of state toll road operator PT Jasa Marga helped extinguish the fire. No one was hurt in the incident. -- JP
