Gravel Truck Drops Contents, Creates Off-Road Hellscape In Downtown DC
Gravel Truck Drops Contents, Creates Off-Road Hellscape In Downtown DC-October 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:27

Some jackass driving a gravel truck failed to secure their load properly resulting in two blocks of Washington DC's Connecticut Avenue turning into a rock garden.

reports that police spent most of the day cleaning the mess up, but they still don't know exactly who to blame for this assault on the tires of DC's driving citizens.

I would not be happy to come up on this with my car or sport bike, though maybe it will give a few mini-SUV owners a chance to get excited and push one of those "special buttons."

Hat tip to Meta Pettus!
