    We had a bad tanker accident in St. petersburg last week, driver killed. Southbound on 275, 375 branches off to left with a pretty radical curve. Driver failed to make the curve, rolled it and a massive explosion resulted. Fuel leaked into sewer system, manhole covers were blown off the street. DOT permanetly closed 375 , overpass has to be repaired, could take at least a year. Penn tank lines truck I believe.

    Doc were you out there? You should have said hi. I was the wrecker driver. That guy made a freak'n mess. The city building guy was worried about the canopy falling, I was more concerned about them wanting to empty the tank. I lost that battle. I wanted to removed it loaded instead of sitting there 3 hours waiting on eagle.


    fun, fun, fun.....lol


    Edit:On a side note, that guy had over 16 years and 2 million safe miles, until this morning......

    No, I wasn't there but did talk to a few gas hauling friends...

    I guess discretion being the better part of valour, the fear of a HUGE KABOOM out weighed your wanting to hook and go....

    I would prefer to tow them loaded. I'm more nervous about the empty tanks with all the vapors than I am about the loaded ones.

    Yes, that is true, an empty tank will go KABOOOOM just as easily as a loaded one
