A large truck and a soft shoulder made for a mess on a Washington County, Ohio, road Wednesday afternoon.
Deputies say the driver of a large coal truck was rounding a curve on Ohio State Route 821 near Whipple when her truck began sinking into some soft mud on the shoulder.
The truck tipped over, spilling tons of coal onto the road.
Authorities had to close part of 821 for nearly two hours while crews cleared the coal and righted the truck.
The driver of the truck was not injured.
Route 821 was re-opened around 5:25 p.m.
