Planning on heading south on 75? You’ll be okay until you get to the Toledo Blade Exit near the Sarasota co./Charlotte co. line. A large cleanup is underway after this tanker blew a tire. Crews are having to offload 8,500 gallons of fuel. @fox13news #sarasota #charlotte #traffic pic.twitter.com/JFMFF7J6gT
