A 2017 Chevy Cruze was driving south on Interstate 95 in the outside lane and failed to brake in time for a 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser that was stopped ahead.

Troopers said the crash pushed the Chevy off the roadway, where it struck a guardrail and became engulfed in flames.

The drivers of the other vehicles remaining on the scene and we’re not injured.
