Sept 28, 2009: Truck Spills

They can count themselves lucky those gators were already dead.

Years back, the main highway into Adelaide from the East snaked down through some hills where the trucks could burn out their brakes, then swung around a 180 degree hairpin turn officially named "The Devil's Elbow". The stuff that spilled there included a truckload of live cattle, a load of nails and scrap metal, and once, about 8,000 live chickens. No crocs, that I remember hearing about, though.
