Oxy tanks in NA are green. These were orange.
Anybody know if that protocol is used over there?

BTW nice job by the following car to get stopped quickly to avoid.

IIRC, Hydrogen and other flammable gases are in yellow and orange, but sometimes only the caps mattered. It’s been 20 years ...

Green was always O2 for medical applications.

Over there, there’s no telling. ;-)

My **GUESS* is that this guy supplied industrial gases from a local distributor, so he was hauling oxy-acetylene, rare gases and maybe some propane for forklifts. The small propane tanks I (in the past) I saw light up looked a lot like the ‘explosions’ in that video.
