Rendering truck scatters load on I-5, that took a lot of guts
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2009548614_apwarenderingtruck.html
Washington State Patrol troopers say a rendering truck that lost its load scattered dead animal parts across the northbound lanes of Interstate 5 in Tacoma.

Troopers say the Monday night spill triggered a 3-mile backup in the northbound lanes, with southbound traffic moving slowly near the scene for some time after the crash.

KOMO-TV reports no one was injured and no other vehicles were involved.

6. Sorry. I prefer Free-Range Road Kill. Not this artificial stuff.
I'm picky that way.

8. When I was sixteenish, I witnessed the aftermath of a candy-bar spill.
That slowed traffic for a different reason.

10. Kill road rather than road kill.
At least temporarily, it rendered the interstate useless.
