I love how they felt they had to add this:
"The bridge is closed until further notice."IluvCATS, Cam Roberts, Bud A. and 8 others Thank this. -
It's Trumps fault. Blame him.
swervyjoe, rabbiporkchop, buddyd157 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Um....what bridge???IluvCATS, Cam Roberts, Cattleman84 and 2 others Thank this.

I take it he was going around closed interstates and thought secondary roads would be a safer choice? Flooding was only happening in that immediate area where they closed the road?
x1Heavy Thanks this. -
The 1st thing that came to mind when I read that part of the story was "thank you Mr. Obvious"
The part of the story they neglected to tell was the length of the operation to remove the seat from his arse. -
Leave the truck there and make it the new bridge?
intrepidor and buddyd157 Thank this. -
Used to happen a lot more... Local history: Goodyear trucked across a rugged nation in September 1918 -
The primary colon to the arse is about roughly 9 feet. Then there is another 50 or so to go more or less. If you spilled your guts all over stay where you are. Don't walk, run or move. The less you do the slower you bleed out.
As far as the bridge. The ground around the bridge was unstable. I don't expect too many people to take that risk into account. It wont be the first time I leaned on a bridge that was too wet a time or two. (And no Im not telling... you do learn...)mjd4277 Thanks this. -
Notice how the windshield is busted outward on the drivers side... Wild ride.
