Quote:

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) -- A truck driver began losing control of his rig on US-131 southbound and began wobbling, eventually tipping over and sliding underneath a bridge at the I-196 interchange.
The truck, carrying a load of crushed cars, began wobbling around Leonard Street. The driver tried to get it under control, but it tipped over, scraped a barrier and slid about 100 feet in the left lanes of US-131 near the Pearl Street exit. It came to rest underneath a bridge.
