A driver in a pickup truck went wrong when he lost 250 kilos of hashish in the middle of the highway because he collided with another pickup truck.
Hash spread across a highway in the US after a traffic accident.
A driver lost control of his pickup truck on a Missouri highway and spilled 250 pounds of marijuana. The accident occurred after a collision with a truck that left a trail of marijuana packages scattered across the roadway.
Missouri Highway Patrol arrived on scene and determined that a GMC Sierra pickup truck had lost its load after the collision. The three occupants of the vehicle, two men and one woman, escaped with minor injuries.
The amount of hashish that was spread on the highway was significant and is estimated, according to the police, to be no less than 250 kilograms.
At the time of the accident, marijuana was illegal in Missouri. However, a subsequent vote in November 2022 legalized the drug in the state.
However, there are concerns about the legalization of marijuana, as studies show an increase in the number of car accidents with personal injury in states where marijuana is legal.
A study showed a 6.6 percent increase in car accidents with injuries in states with legalized marijuana.
The accident on the Missouri highway illustrates the potential risks associated with transporting marijuana, even though it is now legal in the state.
The episode has sparked debate about the safety and regulation of marijuana in Missouri.
Authorities are urging caution and responsible handling of cannabis to avoid similar incidents in the future.
