Dutchman escapes after manure shock
THE HAGUE (Reuters) - A Dutch driver was covered in hundreds of litres of manure when a tank burst on a lorry carrying fertiliser, police say.
"It was a nice night ... so he probably opened his window when he stopped at a traffic light, and then -- (it) happened," said Dana Kragten, spokeswoman for police in rural Drenthe province, on Tuesday. "The tank had a small window which burst, probably due to pressure ... The man said he had no time to back away his car or close his window."
Police said the man, whose car was sprayed with an estimated 1,700 litres (370 gallons) of liquid manure, escaped injury though his car had to be towed away.
