J'ai été témion d'un accident mardi soir pour ceux qui connaisse le coin ici à Saskatoon à l'intersection de la montée de la 16 et de la 11 direction nord proche du Flying J, un semi avec un B-train de la cie Reimer a tombé sur le côté quand il a pris la direction d'Edmonton. Avec un autre chauffeur, j'ai été le sortir de son cab rapidement, car il y avait une fuite de fuel importante d'une de ses tanks. Il était sous le choc et avait des douleurs due à des blessures. Bien content de l'avoir aidé malgré sa badluck. Voici ce qui est écrit dans le site de Global News:
SASKATOON - A Winnipeg semi driver is facing a charge after an accident at a busy Saskatoon interchange created a major traffic snarl and resulted in a fuel spill.
The accident happened Tuesday night as the semi was exiting Idylwyld Drive onto Highway 16 in the city's north end.
Police say the 63-year-old driver tried to change lanes but lost control of his rig, which rolled on its side.
Two trailers he was towing ended up blocking two northbound lanes of traffic and a large volume of diesel leaked from semi's fuel tank.
The truck was not carrying any dangerous goods but environmental personnel were called in to help with the cleanup.
The truck driver, who suffered non life-threatening injuries, has been charged with changing lanes when unsafe.
