LAKE WORTH BEACH, Fla. (WFLA) — Traffic is moo-ving again after a crash caused thousands of gallons of milk to spill on a Florida highway.

A Borden milk truck crashed on Interstate 95 near Lake Worth Beach just after midnight on Jan. 28.

Photos posted to social media by Palm Beach County Fire Rescue showed an estimated 4,160 gallons of milk strewn across the northbound lanes.

11 people were looked over by paramedics after the crash, but none required hospitalization.

The mess required a legen-dairy cleanup. It took three hours to remove the mess from the busy highway.

“All puns aside, We are glad that nobody was hurt, and the roadway was ready for this morning’s commute,” the fire department wrote.

No big deal. It probably would have been “recalled” for something anyway.

Reported on the 4th yet...

It took a week to open the road?

That's really milking it.

Perhaps it was a case of lactose intolerance.

I think that was what my brain saw! Damage and destruction everywhere, yet Elsie is still smiling as she ever was!

That comment reminded of a picture of a milk spill awhile back that had a picture showing a group of cats doing their part in cleaning up the mess.
