There was no good crying over it when a truckload of milk spilled onto a highway.
Palm Beach County Fire Rescue (PBCFR) were called to an unusual — and messy — accident on Wednesday.
They found the truck’s trailer crashed onto a roadside barrier at Lake Worth Beach, Florida, having spilled its load of milk cartons.

PBCFR shared their tongue-in-cheek report of the incident: “A milk-truck had an ‘udderly’ unfortunate crash on I-95 last night just after midnight. 11 people were evaluated on scene. Thankfully they were uninjured and none of them needed to be ‘moo-ved’ to the hospital.
“We calculated that 4,160 gallons of milk were spilled across the northbound lanes at MM63! It took almost 3 hours to clean up after this ‘Cream-mergency!’
