BBC NEWS | UK | England | Marshmallows and beer shut m-way
Hope no-one was hurt though…
mmm! Marshmallows.
mmm! Beer.
mmm
I passed this as i was travelling down the southbound M42 at about 8am and i have never seen so many recovery people at an accident. One of the cabs of the trucks was smashed really bad, hope the driver was ok.
A very ugly scene, there was stuff everywhere.
was that the one where recovery teams from afar as scotland came to help clear the beer up
which involved some lorries that were parked in a lay-by.
Thats the scary bit…your minding your own business…examining the insides of your eyelids then bang
the next thing you know you are on sally traffics travel report,
A sobering thought to those of us layby bunnies
“It is in an area where lorries cannot overtake and also falls between the control of two police regions,” he said.
I wonder which force got the most beer
Police confirmed cans of beer fell onto the carriageway and one person was taken to hospital with minor injuries.
Goodish news

I went to a wagon fire about 6 weeks ago, the trailer was full of vintage champagne, vodka and strong lager. There was a river of blue flame running down the hard shoulder whilst Trumpton battled to extinguish the flames. There were many emotionally scarred men at that job I can tell you Luckily the driver managed to unhook the tractor unit and get it out of the way, just as well, it was brand new
Probably the best crash in the world!
"It is in an area where lorries cannot overtake "
Wrong ,
improperly reported once again . shame the reporters dont know their facts.
.
Was a bit of a mess though. all peeled open like sardine tins .
By the grace of God , No fatacs .
I bet those guys will have trouble sleeping for a few days, I have to feel for them as I had a similar incident .
Years ago, near to where my mate lived, one evening there was a Guiness tanker that rolled and sprung a leak.
The nearby residents duly attended, pint glass in hand.
The licensee of the pub just off the roundabout wasn’t too pleased.
He hadn’t got any customers.
