Avoid area. Tanker truck overturned so they will have to drain it then turn it upright before towing it off. It will take hours. LBJ and Central are shut down in all directions.

I mean you would have thought that would be the easy thing to arrange here, but I'm just a guy on the internet.Bocephus said:

Didn't this thing flip at like 4:30 AM? 9 hours later the heavy duty wrecker isn't there? WTF.Bocephus said:

They had a big hazmat clean up effort to do first.
Right, but they had a tanker on its side, a heavy duty wrecker was in the list of equipment needed to get this fixed and the road re-opened. It should have been on site by hour 9.Spaceship said:jpd301 said:Didn't this thing flip at like 4:30 AM? 9 hours later the heavy duty wrecker isn't there? WTF.Bocephus said:

I don't think it has anything to do with overtime. I think wreckers are ordered in a rotation so that they all get a fair shake. Whatever the cause, wreckers are terribly slow to respond, and that's the reason wrecks are slow to clear in Dallas. If I lived there, I'd make a stink to the city council.Bottlerocket said:
Police in other cities around Dallas will clear wrecks much quicker and they will tell you Dallas is so slow because they want to get the overtime.
