One year after a tragic crash that destroyed a bridge along I-95 in Philadelphia, federal investigators have released a report shedding light on the incident. The report indicates that the crash was caused by a gasoline spill from an unsecured hatch on top of the gasoline delivery tanker involved.
According to the investigation, video evidence showed that the cover of a 16-inch manhole was left open when the driver arrived at a refilling station in Wilmington, Delaware. The hatch was not properly secured when the driver, Nathaniel Moody, set off to deliver the gasoline to a convenience store 42 miles away.
