A Vancouver taxi driver escaped a terrifying fire near Vancouver's Rogers Arena on Monday evening.
The driver, who was the only person in the cab, noticed an electrical problem when it was stopped at a red light on Expo Boulevard, Black Top Checker Cabs told CTV News.
He was able to escape without injury.
Video taken by a witness and posted by Vancity Buzz shows thick smoke billowing out of the taxi and onto the ceiling of the Georgia Viaduct.
