OOOPPPSSS

I wonder if this driver will be getting their SAFE DRIVING AWARD????

[yoopr]

friend of yours Doc? :P

[Doctor Who]

No, don't know the guy... I do know the company that sent the rescue tanker and the driver who did the transfer!!

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......

This will be blamed on the mexicans in 3....2...1

Well, let's just say, the driver wanted something to take for his gas

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....

[bacda]

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.

[Doctor Who]

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