A pick-up hauling watermelons overturned on the Damour highway linking the south with Beirut, throwing the fruits on the road and causing a huge traffic, the National News Agency reported Wednesday.

The accident at 9:00 am shut down the highway for an hour through the morning rush, while Internal Security Forces worked along with the driver to clear the scene.

The pick-up was pulled to the side of the highway, NNA said.

It did not say whether other vehicles or motorists were involved in the crash.

You arrogant Lebanese "asaf", Lebanese children are hungry to. you are not better then the people of Africa. There is people in Lebanon also dying of hunger.
P.s If they had only rules to limit how much that guy is allowed to carry and he sticks to driving rules and instructions of safety but no, am sure he was wither wanking, smoking, or talking on his mobile and bypassing a few cars acting as if he was the king of the world. Sick!

Sasi, why the insult? Asaf is right: It is a waste. Whether he says that Lebanese kids or African kids are hungry is of no importance.

Accidents happen, and trucks overturn and cargo loads spill on highways. What worries me is that pickup truck in the picture under this article. What SOB would load a truck in this manner and send it off on the road? How irresponsible can people be?
