Had an accident call the other night about 10:00 on the interstate. A loaded TT hit the guard rail & barrier in a single lane construction zone at the beginning of an off ramp. He kept driving for 2 miles before he came to a stop...not sure if it was the 1st safe place or he ran out of fuel...

Filled the damaged tank with absorbent to stop it...

Hooked the whole unit, had a load of some sort of contaminated water....

We returned in the day light to clean up the mess on the shoulder...

We pumped the other tank out in the morning so it would stop "oozzing"...
