In the Rhône, a Peugeot 206 went up in smoke because of a shisha.
A smoking story. In the Rhône, a driver accidentally set his car on fire. The reason ? He smoked shisha…while he was driving! This happened during the night from Monday to Tuesday, at the level of the Sauvages, a small town located about fifty kilometers west of Lyon.
As reported by the local daily Le Progrès, perhaps under the effect of a road that turns quite a bit, the coal from the shisha fell into the passenger compartment of the 206, which caused the fire to start. This one quickly spread. The man first abandoned the burning Peugeot.
Firefighters were alerted by a resident. Having obviously crossed them on the way, the motorist turned around to explain to the firefighters that it was his vehicle that was going up in smoke. We imagine a smell much less pleasant than that of chicha.
The gendarmes were invited to the rally, taking the opportunity to verbalize the driver for non-compliance with confinement. Fortunately, no one was injured, but the vehicle ended up completely charred.
