A beer truck caught fire on the Bay Bridge just after 1 p.m. yesterday, causing the California Highway Patrol to shut down all of the bridge's eastbound lanes.
According to the CHP, neither the driver of the truck, nor any other drivers were injured.
Traffic was clogged for around 45 minutes along a number of Bay Area freeways due to stranded drivers getting out of their vehicles.
The burned truck was finally cleared from the roadway just before 6 p.m.

Good job until the last graf ... which includes a fact error: according to your fact sheet, all westbound lanes and some of the eastbound lanes were reopened at 2 p.m.
I'd add a short sentence at the end saying when burned truck was finally cleared from the roadway.
0/20 (fact error); please revise and republish for credit
