Margarine Truck Explodes and Ties Up Atlanta Traffic
Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at 4:02PM The old commercial used to say that "everything is better with Blue Bonnet on it", referring to Blue Bonnet margarine.
Well, everything except for Atlanta highways that is.
Eastbound lanes of I-285 in Dekalb County reopened about 10:15 a.m. Tuesday, some 10 hours after a crash killed a wrong-way driver and caused a huge traffic mess on the northside Perimeter.
The wrongway driver hit a truck carrying margarine and it caught fire and burned for hours. Some drivers were caught in the traffic backup all night.
Hazmat teams arrived on the scene trying to keep the mixture of 15,000 gallons of water used to put out the fire from the firehoses, and oil from the burned margarine from getting into the drainage system.
