Dragging trailer chains can do some damage in these dry conditions

Late last week on I-40 West bound just East of Okemah there were 6-8 fires on the side of the road all spread out for about a mile distance. Police, drivers, FD all putting them out at the various spots along the Hwy. Had to have been chains or some crapbag doing it on purpose.
