On Center street here in Arlington and behind a flat bed truck with five gallon pails of paint in it. They are stacked three high and not secured. Driver makes a right turn and three of the pails fall out breaking on the street. Silver paint goes everywhere!! Some splashes onto this Lincoln. I call 911 and when the PD comes out to take my statement and talk to the driver. They don't issue a citation. [censored]! I know that if it were me they would have written me up in a heartbeat. Truck driver exchanges info with the Lincoln driver and drives off without even an warning. Now fifteen gallons of silver paint has made a mess and is left on the street.

He is related to the LEO who came to the scene?
Yes, you would expect he would at least get a ticket for littering or something.

you could paint 1/2 the metroplex with 15 gallons of silver paint. That [censored] paints forever

You called 911 for a paint spill? I would have also since the paint spill was a traffic hazard that could have caused also kind of reactions by drivers coming up on it. Seems like the 911 operator also thought so since the police were dispatched.

Any man who drops a load early, in a destination not pre-approved, can find himself in big trouble!!
Trust me.
