The tipping of a milk tanker last night caused udder chaos on a highway.
Last night, the milk-laden lorry was travelling down the A303 through Honiton, Devon, and Basingstoke, Hampshire.
Although it sent forth a flood of milk as it turned the Southfields roundabout, there were no cookies to be found.
Ilminster road police and firefighters responded to the incident, causing a brief closure of the road at Horton Cross.
After the milk soaked the road, Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service had to patch it up using specialised tools.
Officers were concerned that the milk would contaminate the ground and drainage systems by entering neighbouring sewers.
According to the authorities, environmental protection officers were called in to assist as they wiped up the milk and brought another van to decant it into.
The cross-county road police reported that no one complained or was hurt over the spilled milk.
The Avon and Somerset Police’s Roads Policing and Road Safety Teams stated on Twitter/X, “Last night the A358 at Southfields RAB had to be closed while recovery agents worked to get this milk tanker back on all four wheels after it overturned.”
Thank goodness, nobody was hurt. Sorry for any inconvenience caused to drivers during the road closure.
