    That was such a big project here last year. But that pole car driver should have not taken that chance on it going under either.

    For anyone interested, here's the local tv news station and they have a link to video on it. The link is in the top right corner, just hit the play button.

    Kingsson, you're from Omaha?? We live just outside of Omaha in Valley. I work in Omaha though. :yes2557: It's nice to see someone from our area on here.

    There's a helluva lot of difference in the driver stopping it, or the bridge stopping it, lol. Sounds like the bridge stopped it.

    Well driver, time to get out and deflate all those daggum tires. Enjoy the rest of your day hahaha
