Thousands of gallons of Red Bull have spilled on to Interstate 95 in central Florida after two tractor-trailers collided.

Florida Highway Patrol said a lorry carrying the drink was heading north when the driver tried to move to the centre lane near Rockledge because another lorry was stopped on the hard shoulder.

When he swerved back into the outside lane, the truck sideswiped the parked vehicle. The trailer ripped open and the energy drink spilled on to the road. The driver was given a ticket for failing to maintain a single lane after the incident and nobody was hurt.
