Well, this is a lesson to all dump truck drivers out there: don’t drive down the highway with the trailer raised. There are, ya know, bridges and stuff, and your trailer, should it hit one, could cause the scene you see above.
It was early this morning when just such a clusterfuck took place on I-90 at the E. 156th St. pedestrian bridge. That portion of 90 could be shut down all weekend and maybe more since crews will have to literally tear down the bridge — it was moved off its base by the collision.

CHEESE AND RICE!!!! THAT driver got fired I bet!!!!
Was this guy high…or what????
Nice driving, idiot. I’m guessing his insurance will go up just a tad after this little mishap.
I ALWAYS SAW SIGNS ON INTERSTATE 71 “LOWER BOOM, BRIDGE AHEAD!!” He probably had a Cell Phone in his hand. Or if it was a Woman, A BLONDE!! EQUAL RIGHTS!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSDEtptrybw
Well the mess is cleaned up but the fight is just getting started as to who is going to pay for replacement….
