Three people are lucky to be alive following a fiery crash on the QEW in Stoney Creek on Thursday.
Amateur video showed three vehicles on fire at the side of the highway near Fruitland Road around 4 p.m.
Two tractor-trailers and a pickup truck were involved in the crash.
One of the trucks suffered a tire failure, causing it to veer off and strike another tractor trailer. Both vehicles then crashed into a pickup truck, pinning it against the barrier on the left hand side of the highway.
All three drivers managed to escape. One of the truck drivers suffered just minor injuries.
