Trucker spills load of chicken guts avoiding collision with motorist

From CDL Life:

A load of chicken guts was dumped across a highway after the semi truck hauling them was cut off by a motorist on Monday. 

The accident happened at around 1:35 p.m. in Queensland, Auatralia. 

According to The Guardian, the truck driver slammed on their brakes to avoid another vehicle that had cut them off, sending the chicken parts catapulting over the side of the trailer and slathering the truck cab and highway below with the residue.

A portion of the Mt. Lindesay Highway was shut down for three hours as crews worked to clear the mess.

‘I didn’t see exactly what happened but it’s horrendous and hilarious at the same time,’ said a witness to the incident. 

The truck driver was transported to a hospital for injuries sustained in the wreck. They are reportedly in stable condition.
