This is what happens when a coke truck and dump truck loaded with asphalt. Dump truck driver had some cuts and bruises, but the coke driver ended up with 9 broke ribs broke collar bone, broke sholder bone and brused lung not to mention cuts and scrapes. It happened at 9 am and took till 3 pm to get it cleaned up.

Yikes! Glad nobody was killed. Wonder what kind of beverage the guy standing next to the coke truck is drinking.

Thanks shovelhead.

The coke truck dropped off the sholder and lost control. He hit the dump in the passanger side flipping him all the way around and over a 20' bank into some trees. Sounded like a freight train hitting a brick wall. When I got to the scene I knew I was going to find a dead man. The seat belt saved his life, no dought in my mind. The trees all around was covered in oil and diesel. Got to hand it to Coke they were there in no time and had their "haz mat" crew there this evening cleaning up the oil and diesel. Heck they even beat the state troopers there.

From the looks of things I'd say the dumptruck driver was on Coke.. I wonder if the Coke truck driver tested positive for Pepsi?
