Truck carrying 40K pounds of beer overturns in Vt.
From Associated Press

SWANTON, Vt. - Police say a truck carrying 40,000 pounds of beer overturned in Vermont and closed a highway for several hours.

The truck went off the road Monday morning on Route 78 in Swanton. It rolled over and landed in a swamp on a wildlife refuge. The crash also knocked down some power lines.

Travis Greeno, assistant chief of the Swanton Fire Department, says the truck had to be offloaded before it was pulled out of the ditch. He said it was "going to be a long day."

The highway was closed for several hours.

The truck driver was not hurt. It is unclear why he went off the road.

No beer spilled into the swamp[/b][/glow][/color]

Don't know why the road would be closed several hours. Around here the truck would have been empty before the law showed at the scene. :D

Very true. I've come upon such wrecks and the driver starts giving us beer. I filled my old ton truck up that day.
