I've heard trucks have been blown off that bridge. Looks like the wires did there job. I hate driving that bridge. I would prefer to hire some one while I hide in the sleeper. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCGxoVxO86Q&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I "almost" had a high profile load I was pulling one night get away from me, it was on hwy 50 in MD the bay bridge going east across the bay, that bridge takes a turn about 1/4 the way out and when I made that corner what was a headwind had me hanging on for dear life, they shut it down for high winds right after I crossed, change of undies was needed.
