I searched bridge

An 18-wheeler crash on I-10 sent a truck over the side of the Basin Bridge Tuesday.

The crash occurred around 4:40 p.m., destroying the barrier and dropping the 18-wheeler on the roadway below. Louisiana State Police say the truck drove off the bridge near the Butte La Rose exit.

Probably wasnt his fault. People get some serious cases of the stupid when cutting trucks off. Lucky they don't just run people over more often.

If that happened where I think it did, the guardrail was already broken. Has been for months.

I know it had traffic fricked up all the way back to Henderson. I had to go thru Arnaudville to get back to WBR.

Not sure why someone downvoted this, but this is highly possible. Especially on the in that area.. People drive like maniacs.

If no where else in this state, truck drivers are in line and at the speed limit on that bridge. It probably requires more attention to drive that stupid slow, but they aren't the ones that are driving recklessly IMHO.
