Cancun water truck breaks in two during portable deliveries

Cancun, Q.R. — A water truck delivering portable water to communities in Cancun broke into two Friday. Cancun Transit were notified of the unusual roadway mishap in SM 227.

The driver of the truck was delivering water to several irregular residential areas Friday when the cab separated from the holding compartment. Transit were requested at the intersection of Chetumal and Costa Maya Avenues since the broken vehicle was creating traffic issues.

The water truck was found blocking a lane. As a result of the incident, traffic on Costa Maya Avenue was temporarily affected while police had the filled truck removed by a tow truck.

The central metal bar holding the truck’s structure together reportedly fractured in two. After the accident, the truck was towed to a company base that owns the truck.
