LOGAN, Utah (AP) - Authorities say a semitrailer filled with the cheese byproduct whey toppled when the driver took a turn too fast.
Cache County deputies say the crash happened a little before 11 a.m. Tuesday. The driver and the passenger weren’t wearing seatbelts and were taken to the hospital with injuries that don’t appear to be life-threatening.
Officials say the truck from Dairy Way Transportation was carrying 5,000 gallons of the substance when the trailer tipped and took the cab with it. Deputies say the cab landed on its roof at 2400 West and Airport Road.
The driver and his trainer were able to get out of the cab.
The driver was cited for going too fast.
Crews with the Bear River Health Department were called to help with a hazardous material cleanup.
