Looks like someone was getting paid by the ton,,overloaded for sure! I think liquid sucrose is almost 8 lbs. a gallon, times what, 9,000 gallons? Bingo, 100 grand gross.
x1Heavy, lovesthedrive and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
It says organics on the tanker. What kind of high fructose corn syrup is organic?
lovesthedrive Thanks this. -
Tankers dont crush like that when loaded. Im betting someone just unloaded and forgot to open a vent, especially since they said there was nothing spilled.
lovesthedrive Thanks this. -

I cant help but wonder how big a pot hole or bump did he go over. If he was loaded and went through a significant bump. As well as perhaps a dent in the tank. Oh well, not my headache.

liquid sugar?
If that thing has two compartmented tanks and well overweight its going to snap and fail just like that one did.
It must have been a single compartment tank, I don't see two hatches. SO it will still fail when overloaded with that heavy sugar.lovesthedrive and 201 Thank this. -
