    HOW....FREAKING....STUPID............

    i hope that not only does his (or his company's insurance) pays 100% for a new bridge, but that he loses his job...and if an o/o, loses his MC numbers...everything.

    examples of that magnatude need to be carried out to ensure all others pay attention to signs, laws, etc.

    there is no way now, that bridge will still be on the historic register, but rather now a plaque mounted nearby.

    what a waste of a human.....

    Wouldn't have caught me trying to cross that.

    Course you wouldn't catch me loading that light, either.

    I wonder how fast he was going to make it that far across the bridge. It should have collapsed with the truck alone.

    i'd imagine it was a local guy. and if so, he's just as stupid as a mega carrier dimwit.

    he makes all of us look just as bad , had it been a mega driver. (well i'm retired, so i look good)

    people like that "clown" in the pic, should have had more professionalism in him.

    i feel sorry for the rest of you that have to continue in this industry, sharing the roads with such morons as him.

    Yeah it doesn't take much when you're 30 tons over the limit.
