Photos: Trailer Carrying Frozen Eggs Splits On Route 80

A trailer hauling frozen egg whites split on Route 80 in Elmwood Park early Friday, spilling fuel, which temporarily closed the westbound highway and caused rubbernecking delays on the eastbound side.

The accident jammed the westbound morning rush on Route 80 in Elmwood Park.
