State Highway 84 in Alameda County just outside of Pleasanton was shut down for a time during the Monday morning commute because of a taco truck fire.

The California Highway Patrol said the fire was reported at about 5:50 a.m. and blocked both sides of the 2-lane highway. Shortly after, CHP officers started alternating traffic through one open lane, said CHP Officer Kevin Kroncke.

A Sig-alert was issued at about 6:30 a.m. and was canceled at 7:43 a.m. Both lanes were reopened by 8 a.m.

The taco truck driver was on the scene but no injuries were reported, according to CHP Officer Tracy Hoover.

2. Is a taco truck literally a truck full of tacos?

Where was this again. I am getting ready to fry some chicken this afternoon, but I could use a taco snack first. ;)

6. From the video still it looks like a roach coach

fast food vending truck. The kind that lined the street when I went to Rutgers (gyro craving kicking in).
