Cars are burning in Madison

And for the first time, well, probably ever, it's not because of crazy loony student protesters rioting!

On my way back from Madison today I saw a car on I-90 burning. There was a ton of black smoke bellowing up ahead of me and sure enough, a Ford Taurus was engulfed in flames. It hadn't been burning long, because the second squad car got there as I passed it.

Also as I passed it, there was a huge boom as the front left tire exploded. That was pretty cool.
