I-75 in Chattanooga turned into an unscheduled fireworks show when a truck loaded with holiday bangers blew up.🔥

The truck full of explosives aka fireworks slated for a July 4 show caught fire on the freeway near Ooltewah, Tennessee and started launching them everywhere like nature decided to celebrate early.

No injuries were reported, but traffic was wild.

Who else is glad they weren’t stuck in that lane?

They know how to celebrate America’s 250th in the south – and a month early to boot!🎆

Check out the video here.
