A chemical spill from an overturned pool service truck closed the northbound lanes of I-15 at I-8 in San Diego on August 3rd. The California Highway patrol reported that approximately 20 gallons of murietic acid and chlorine spilled onto the freeway resulting in a sig-alert.
The man behind the wheel of the 2001 Ford Ranger was reported to be 26-year-old Jake McKinney of San Diego, who lost control of the truck for unknown reasons just south of Interstate 8 about 1 p.m., and it crashed into a center wall.
Haz-Mat clean up expenses are typically charged to the driver, but most truck insurance policies provide no coverage for this type of claim.
Arrow Insurance Service includes Hazardous Material Clean Up Insurance on many of its commercial liability policies and this coverage is included for all members of the Independent Pool & Spa Service Association ("IPSSA").
