"Meredith police pulled the tractor-trailer over Tuesday night after noticing it was leaking fuel. Because the next delivery was to Meredith Ford, the driver parked it there, and whatever was left in the tank leaked out."
Does anybody else have a problem with this statement, what did the driver think was going to happen to the rest of the fuel? Why was he allowed to continue driving after he was pulled over? While I'm generally against fees and fines, I think a large fine is in order here, maybe the next time the driver will call a mechanic or the fire department who could have stopped the leak or at least pumped the fuel out of the tank.
