7/23/2002: Potatoes on Tokyo highway



The driver must have failed to tie down the load properly, because he was fined - in an incident in which his truck accidentally dropped 2.5 tons of potatoes onto a Tokyo-area freeway, tying up traffic for three hours.

They said by the time they got to stopping traffic, about half of the potatoes had been MASHED.

No word on whether a milk tanker was also involved.
