Folks,

Another bee traffic jam,
http://www.thekansascitychannel.com/news/2286651/detail.html,
which in this case about 500 hives were spilled in traffic.

Perhaps the incidents that we hace seen over this list during the past 6
months or so should give creedance that this sort of thing can happen
anywhere, anytime, and with any type of vehicle.  State and local
beekeeping organizations should have an emergency plan worked out with
local and state authorities should an accident occur with a vehicle
carrying hives.  Beekeepers on call can help clean up the mess faster and
better than most HAZMAT teams and most likely will strive to save as many
bees as possible.
