A spill of 15 gallons of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has caused miles/hours long delays in California.

It's a tanker spill, does 15 gallons sound realistic to you?

Good thing it wasn't H20 - snowflakes, slowly breath into a paper sack, breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out - now go get a mooch latte at starbucks and chill

15 gallons ain't that much

I want to make a blonde joke

No becuase the hydrogen peroxide is probably rocket fuel grade and if rubber tires roll over it they will combust

Hydrogen peroxide spill in California causes tens of thousands of dollars of improvements to shit filled California

Same thing I was thinking. The only thing this will do is help with all the bacteria from the poop.

Yes. From all that has been mentioned about it, it was about 15 gallons, contained, and they were in the clean-up phase over an hour ago.

See?

How convenient that he was parked and happened to be looking when it started to leak. Remarkable too that they got it fixed before more than 15 gallons escaped, yup.

The incident was reported to firefighters around 2:30 p.m., said Supervisor Melanie Flores with Los Angeles County Fire Department.

Officials were advised that the truck was leaking hydrogen peroxide. Although they were told the spill was about 12 to 15 gallons, Flores said it was larger, with about a gallon leaking every five minutes.

There was no crash or other vehicles involved.

The truck remained on the roadway after 4 p.m., and hazmat crews were still en route to the scene. Flores said they probably wouldn’t arrive for another hour.

All four lanes were closed initially, but authorities reopened two lanes at around 5:20 p.m., according to Caltrans.
