A three car accident featuring an overturned tanker truck caused a miles long backup on I-5 in Seattle Monday, creating the type of traffic jam that nightmares are made of. The crash happened around 10 am, and part of the freeway was closed until 6 pm. Fortunately, one of the hangry drivers stuck in traffic was the owner of the Tacos El Tajin taco truck, who said “fuck this” to the backup and opened for lunch anyway.

Dozens of people were reportedly fed. And Tacos El Tajin couldn’t have asked for better PR.
