Nothing on those crushed cars contains oil or petroleum products.

What little may exist is no worse than the oil dripping from vehicles going over the Blue Bridge. It is akin to throwing a pop can into the Gorge.
Apparently it did not occur to you that this is an eye witness quote from the article and not my comment. Or that the oil may have been from the barge? Good to know that 100 cars ~ 1 pop can in BC!
