    That’s a drop in the bucket compared to what one of Abenaqui’s tanker yankers did in Everett ,Massachusetts a decade and a half ago. That idiot laid a tanker over going too fast in a rotary,spilling his fuel load(9400 gallons of gasoline)which sparked a fire and torched a neighborhood!!
    Tanker bursts into flames; Everett homes, cars ignited
    Even then some of the gasoline ended up going into storm drains leading into the Mystic River!!

    Everett tanker blast breeds worries of similar disaster threat on North Shore

    Sounds like a guy who forgot to close his crude oil tanker 250 barrels of crude oil right to the ground. Think the cleanup was something like $6 million

    The Caddie's insurance, If he even had insurance, may pay, but only up to the limits of his liability policy. Which probably won't be enough to cover uprighting the truck and doing the repairs. I was still running a tanker when I retired, and I would have not swerved. Better him getting hurt or killed than me.
