Beautiful accident: orange paint spilled on freeway

bill says: "Truck hauling orange paint [near St. Louis, Missouri] spills it on the road leaving a 3 mile streach of road a lovely hue of bright orange — there is a link to video too."

200706141140 Apparently, a truck carrying orange paint sprung a leak, and just kept going. The orange stripe starts around Highway 203 (near Gateway International Raceway) and goes to about 4th Street in East St. Louis, a distance of more than 3 miles.

Your story on the red paint spill is very similar to what happened in
Massachusetts a couple of months ago. A truck carrying red dye for coloring
bark mulch spilled it's load – cars spread the dye for nearly 3 miles! Check
out this picture from Autoblog.
