Driver Killed After Falling Off Dam

Yikes

​

 

RIP driver, anytime some one dies, it's a bad time, but here we are, into the holiday season....not much to be "merry" about.

 

Wow!!! I took that road once headed north,in the middle of the night to deliver Christmas trees. I had an eerie feeling that Trucks didn’t belong there. Dangerous narrow Road, right there. RIP.

 

They blame it on foggy conditions. I would add speed. If he was driving slowly he might have survived. Condolences just the same.

 

Not Good

 

Pretty crazy used to cross this guy often.

 

I definitely agree with speed. That frame is bent, usually the concrete ping pongs people. But to punch through requires quite a bit of speed which IS NOT that hard coming westbound onto the dam with that last drop and curve.

Its unfortunate but not the first.

It is a tight dam. At some point in the future they will detonate the thing, its been in place so long the river sediment is making it to almost unusable to generate power. I don't know if they will replace it. There are 4 more dams upriver.
