Spilled N95 masks on the Mississippi River Bridge cause accident; heavy traffic
Spilled N95 masks
BATON ROUGE- Spilled boxes of surgical masks on the Mississippi River Bridge caused an accident and heavy traffic for Port Allen drivers traveling into the Capital City Wednesday afternoon.
Two boxes of N95 masks were spilled on the westbound side of the Mississippi River Bridge and witnesses say they were "flying around all over the place," causing traffic to slow down.
When speeds decreased due to the unleashed PPE, a car traveling eastbound was rear ended.
West Baton Rouge sheriffs say the injuries from the crash were minor, however, a pregnant woman was involved and transported to the hospital out of an abundance of caution.
The accident has been cleared and all lanes are open again, but traffic is still backed up to LA 1 in Port Allen. You can keep up with traffic in the capital area on Twitter @WBRZtraffic.

We were overdue for a MS River Bridge traffic/accident thread. First step in getting back to normal.

Advocate editorial writer Stephanie Grace will be blaming this on Trump and Jindal in tomorrow's edition.

I have said it before and will say it again.
That bridge is the Bermuda Triangle of roads.
People can drive event free from the other side of the country and in that 3/4 mile stretch magically steer into other cars, lose tires, have their car catch on fire, lose cargo and run into the guardrails. It is amazing.

Be right there with a sack. DGAF. Burt's gonna get his.

I thought it was going to be because people stopped to pick up the N95 masked. Those are like cash money.

OUR HOME, LOUISIANA
A flickering lamp, a fire bright,
The lights are on again,
Graceful trees tell quiet tales,
And you remember then.
All our dreams head homeward, chere,
Smiles bring other smiles,
Neighbors, friends, and family join,
Together, we survive.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home.
A breaking dawn, a tender morn,
A canvas we design,
The band parades, a jester laughs,
We share momentous time.
And all our hopes flow back to you,
The music plays in time,
The river calls in majesty.
Together, we survive.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home.
Church bells ring, the children sing,
My sunshine, you are mine,
Hello old friend, I knew you when,
Together, we'll unwind.
May all our prayers be noble now,
May all our work be pure,
May we be thankful once again,
Together, we endure.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home

So....how much would you take for a couple dozen of those masks?
And I don't want the ones with tire tracks on them.
