Overturned Leyland truck
Title
Overturned Leyland truck
Description
"How lucky can you get? Truck driver Barrington Small (in front of truck) was on his way to the Salt River bulk sugar store Sunday with a load full of 18 tons brown sugar from New Yarmouth and Monymusk, when the steering on his Leyland truck snapped. The truck ran off the road and overturned, shedding the two front wheels in the process. Mr. Small and a companion, James Reid, walked away with minor bruises and oil soaked clothes. Was Mr. Small frightened? No, he said, it all happened too quickly to be scared."
