Los Angeles: Commuters scrambled to find alternative routes recently after a truck crash left thousands of eggs all over the road in Washington state, in the western United States.
Footage from the aftermath of the accident that took place on December 12, 2023, showed a trail of yolk running down the highway as workers tried to clear up the breakfast mess.

No one was seriously hurt in the smash, which happened overnight around 20 miles (30 kilometers) outside Seattle.
