What an offal mess.

Looks like a portion of the load may have ended up in the cabin with the driver. Seems to be a fairly common occurrence around the world for this particular product. https://www.couriermail.com.au/ques...t/news-story/0ac71e712fdab03e88469c7a09c36dc9

    Now that would knock the buzzard off the ‘Gut Truck’! Nothing worse around here than a Rendering waste hauler unless set it aside a septic tanker(Honey Bucket)!

    Ranks (see what I did there) right up there with this one, it happened close to where we live. I have made a couple trips on my cousins boat fishing for these, they are an interesting fish but what a mess! https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...forms-oregon-road-into-highway-of-nightmares/

    Am I the only one that wonders how many chickens it took to make that offal mess ? Also, what in the world did the truck driver look like when it happened.

    The news report said that he had no “distinct” injuries. Good chance he may never eat chicken again.

    Maybe because he was covered in blood and gore and on first impression appeared that he was a dead man walking. Years ago when I was an EMT the doctor at the hospital used to frequently chastise paramedics for sending car accident victims on a helicopter to a major trauma center, when all that was wrong with them was glass cut their eyebrow, leading to the appearance of major injuries. He called it the "bloody head syndrome".

    I am sure the local kebab stores, asian and european restaurants, scottish haggis makers along with aussie pie makers and US franchise fast food outlets would clean it up quickly.

    Have been involved in a few family farm chicken slaughters Seems like the guts package swells as removed so may have only been a few to tens of thousand in the gut bucket!
