    There aren’t any scale houses in that neck of the woods. Westphalia is about 35 minutes south east of Jefferson City.

    Um, yeah, I'm not driving onto this bridge with my wife's Subaru. Since he was hauling feed, my guess is he was trying to get to the place just across the river, or else he got on the wrong road trying to find a feedlot and figured he'd just keep going. He only would have had to back up about a half mile to get to a driveway where he could have turned around.
