The force of the blast ripped through the body of the bakkie, and fortunately, it didn’t disrupt any other vehicles at the scene. In terms of ‘explosions at petrol stations’, we’re probably looking at the reasonable best-case scenario here. Not a single injury was reported for anyone on the forecourt – the only casualty was the Ford Ranger itself.
