Highway 401 has been as eventful as it is busy this week between a salt truck pushing a vehicle sideways across several lanes, a pedestrian walking across it and now a transport truck spilling toilet paper all over the place.
Ontario Provincial Police posted about the bizarre collision during the afternoon commute Tuesday, saying it happened between two transport trucks just east of the Thousand Islands Bridge.
Collision: #Hwy401 wb 5km east of Hill Island/1000 Islands USA bridge. Down to 1 lane after collision between 2 transports.

No injuries. Will take a few hours to cleanup. #Slowdown and expect delays.#ONHwys @OPP_COMM_ER ^bd pic.twitter.com/nOkEjXNHRK
Photos posted to the OPP East Twitter account show a severely damaged truck with rolls of toilet paper, debris and tires scattered all over the road.
Excuse the pun but that is one shitty mess.

This portion of Highway 401 was forced to close down to one lane at the time of the incident while the mess was cleaned up.
Should be wiped up quickly

Crews then spent several hours cleaning up the mess.
Looks like Costco's going to be caught short for awhile.
