Milk Tanker is Forced Off the Freeway - Smashed in the Median
Published at : 23 Dec 2025
Tyler and Tad head out to help Joe at Ralph's Garage with a milk tanker recovery on Route 2. Another tractor trailer was entering the freeway when it merged into the side of the milk truck driver, causing it to crash into the median with heavy damage to the front of the tractor. State Patrol set up a lane closure, and the NRC heavy wreckers were moved into position. The 65 ton rotator was rigged to the front of the tractor while the 40 ton slider attached to the tanker. Both wreckers worked to bring the tractor and tanker back across the median and into the roadway. The tanker and tractor were transported back to Ralph's Garage where the company recovered both units later.
