Sublette Examiner Volume 9, Number 2 - April 2, 2009 brought to you online by Pinedale Online by Derek Farr On Tuesday Sublette County emergency personnel responded to an overturned tanker trailer two miles east of Sand Draw on State Highway 351. The upturned trailer spilled a small amount of condensate on the roadside. Condensate is a petroleum liquid similar to diesel fuel. Authorities said the double-tanker-trailer truck lost control of its second trailer – the pup trailer-which slid off the road and overturned. The rest of the rig remained upright. There were no injuries. Emergency Services’ Robert Hansen said the driver was lucky: “Usually when we have one like this both the tractor and the trailer tip over.” Photo credits: Derek Farr See The Archives for past articles.
