Frites n Meats' Propane Tank Explodes, Injuring Two

• Hope they recover soon!!..

• Oh come on, get your facts straight... The DOH does in fact regulate food trucks. They are inspected before they're allowed to operate. There's a cap on the number of permits. They are frequently ticketed by the NYPD for non-offenses. The vendors also need to have a mobile vendor food protection license. And it's not like brick and mortar restaurants don't burn down in this town.

• This is just another hazard of food trucks. They are driving around with flammable explosive material in the truck. When they idle, they are polluting out air with their diesel generators, and when they are driving around, they can potentially blow up. Nice to know the city is regulating them (not).

• when is big Daddy Bloomberg going to try and regulate foodtrucks the dept. of health regulates and outrageouly fines bars that don't serve food , harrases restaurants and tickets EVERYbody . Yet the evergrowing food truck populatiin is NOT regulated at all? They are often filthy, spew odors, smoke, and gas fumes and are a real DANGER and health hazzard . I guess he's waiting until they make more $$ before he shakes them down like he does every other small business in NYC.
