Narrative

Me and my friends are actually going to a trip on three cars. And I am the only one driving my car. All of a sudden when I am on US Highway 82. It started smoke. Immediately I tried to pull over. With in seconds it started fire. I inhaled lot a of smoke. I am a asthama patient so felt dozy immediately. Somehow I immediately came out of the car. I called 911 and whitesbore pd and fire engine team immediately arrived. But with in that time the front hood completely burnt and front seats as well.
