It’s freezing, a large tanker skids dangerously. She then lays down on one side of her. The SS 115 is closed to traffic

Fear but fortunately only damage to vehicles, in the afternoon, on the Ss 115 in the stretch between Manfria and Piana Marina, where several rescue teams are operating. A tanker began to skid dangerously on the road, perhaps due to the road surface made slippery by the rain, which fell in recent hours. The vehicle crossed the road, ending its run in the center of the road, partially lying on its side and blocking the two lanes. At the moment there have been no injuries or damage to other vehicles. By a miracle it seems no one arrived. The road is currently closed to traffic with traffic diverted onto alternative roads for all vehicles arriving from Licata and Caltanissetta. The firefighters of the Gela detachment and the Caltanissetta provincial command are operating on site, having requested the support of a maxi crane arriving from the Agrigento department. 118 sent an ambulance for support but there were no reports of people in difficulty. The investigations are underway by the police forces.
