Lansing, Michigan drivers found themselves in a crappy traffic situation on Friday morning.
A truck hauling 50,000 pounds of  human waste and 25,000 pounds of treated waste and manure, on two trailers, blew out a tire, causing the truck to tip and spill its load.
“Speaking live on WWJ Newsradio 950, reporter Francesca Amiker of CBS affiliate WLNS said the two-compartment 18-wheeler was approaching a curve — just south of the Kalamazoo Street exit — when a tire blew out, causing the waste to shift to the second compartment,” WWJ reported.
The incident occurred in the northbound lanes of U.S. 127 at the Trowbridge Road exit. Â Traffic had to be rerouted to I-496.
