Well, that’s what some drivers got at the intersection of Main and Expressway today! I almost got in on the fun, but since I could take pictures instead and tell y’all about it, I chose the latter. This was a pretty crazy scene, man.
No, the firefighter is not chasing these vehicles with the spray. Rather, he’s washing off the roadway. I don’t know what sort of incident took place here, but these guys were hurriedly washing something off the road. What it is, I have no idea; but it can’t be anything serious, because they were washing it off the roadway into the ditch.
Look past the front of the fire truck and you’ll see that there’s a truck and trailer at the side of the road. I don’t know if they were hauling something and it spilled, or if there was an accident and spill, or pretty much anything else. I’d feel pretty bad about the lack of details, but the local media were apparently completely oblivious to the entire thing. Traffic was backed up in all directions, so I threw the camera back in the bag and took a different route into town.
I sure would like to know what they were rinsing off the road…wouldn’t you?
