wt hell, 
......are you talking about? If a pilot truck makes it across and the driver doesnt its the pilot cars fault?
Maybe the driver shoulda got out and checked it out himself....most bridges have load restrictions.. if this one did, its his own fault....btw, hes not real smart to go out and walk anywhere on a bridge or load thats about to go into the river..........

Ok i gotta say something, i am a driver, this is not always the drivers fault, his boss could have told him to do it or a cop a or some other dumb azz who did not know anything about the load he was carrying or it was the only route to take. Just so we can clarify, we are not all stupid or idiots who drive trucks and make mistakes, everyone does it everyday in every profession. DD
(ie. drivin non stop fer 24 hours)
WE are the driver, and WE are in charge, aint no cop, boss, dispatcher or anyone else will ever MAKE me do somethin with a truck I know is unsafe, me and me alone is responsibe for what happens while I am operating my truck. Even if it costs me my job. (there are people to report that kinda BS to.)
Anyway, in the drivers defence, it could been a weakened bridge, or anything, but judging by the sheer fact even the tractor used the WHOLE single lane of the bridge........

You O.K.ed it with your boss man? And got written confirmation right? Soon as a bridge drops he'll say" Nope, never told him to do that, we stress safety, safety, safety over anything else. Clear violation of company policy, he's fired!"
