Must be the bridge on US 62..been over that one a couple times. The one on 24 over the Ohio river too many times to even count.
I do know one thing and it’s the wind through there can get you if you’re not paying attention.
Been more than once I’ve gone over it empty when I probably shouldn’t have

I used pull a load of cattle outta Kentucky every Saturday to Joplin across there. I’ve had them boys think they were gonna put me in the guardrail more than once cause they can’t judge the right side. I’ll give em all I can, but no more.

Wow. DWT maybe?
Concorde and Flat Earth Trucker Thank this. -
It happened just before the 20 mph right hand curve. So my bet is he was going too fast, saw the curve too late, hit the brakes hard amd started swerving. Add in a little wind or someone coming the other way amd that's all she wrote.
Flat Earth Trucker, sevenmph, mjd4277 and 2 others Thank this.
