well wasn't exactly the runway it was in the alley where the wing of any a/c will pass right over the vehicle service road. it's stated in the training class to use extra caution when driving in this area due to the proximity to moving a/c.
it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

Equipment changed to an A319, nice upgrade from an MD-80
At least the driver knows how to duck... Seriously, Ive seen some pretty horrible and unaware fuel drivers at LGA when I was at LGA... Cutting airplanes off, drving off the plotted roads, under winngs of airplanes there was no intent to fuel etc.

I had an closer encounter on a plane with a fuel truck at LGA once. Doesn't surprise me.

The only thing that surprises me is that this doesn't happen more often.
Train as if your life depends on it. Because some day it may.
Opinions expressed are my own & not those of my employer.
I see it was a Servisair truck, I was thinking Ogden-Allied Fueled DL at LGA, anybody else notice the MD88 slats are extended, I guess he was starting to taxi. I wonder how long DL's East alley was blocked, probably sucked if they had ATL 757's on Gates 1 & 3 which where probably blocked !
IIRC, that alley was quite a congested area with all the RJ's parked at the blastfence, is that still that case?
