Just one more reason to never go to Indiana.
The improbable rescue was broadcast live.
Terrifying.

A semi is dangling off the 2nd St Bridge in Louisville

I saw that in person. Was trying to cross the bridge for a meeting and didnt realize it was closed. Insane to see in person. If I was the driver, my pants would officially be ruined. I hate crossing that bridge anyways. Way to skinny for 4 lanes.
A $1 trillion infrastructure bill was passed in Nov. 2021 which included replacement of these old bridges. I haven't seen as much as a pothole filled yet.
This particular bridge was just closed and repainted back in 2018/2019
That's a good one, lol, thanks. I guess it's good for another 25 years. Keep lipsticking that pig.
It gets a lot more traffic now that the other bridge has a toll. I don't go to Indiana much but I use 2nd Street because it's free.
It's the bridge where all goes down for Thunder Over Louisville happens. Would like to know how it happened?
Obviously that "color" was on sale when they chose what color to paint it.
The entire tractor was over the side.
The company that built the sliding fifth wheel needs to get one hell of a lot of credit.

I bet the bridge was deemed racist by Buttigeg 🍺
I was thinking the same thing, the fifth wheel mount plate must have been the best in the business 🍺
Frugal take, Glenn.
There was a wreck in front of the driver, and she chose to go over the side of the bridge rather than annihilate the cars in her path. Pretty crazy.
You've obviously not traveled down I-26 to I-95 south. Even the shithole state of South Carolina has been busy working, although they've still got a long way to go after years of neglecting their roads.
God was trying to stop him from entering the midwest.
I've gone over that bridge probably 16 times. One of them a car overturned about 15 cars in front of me. Thinking that bridge may not be that safe.
I absolutely hate that bridge. Narrow lanes, no shoulder, no median. I can’t believe big rigs are even allowed on it. Hopefully that changes now.
The dude who rescued her is an absolute legend.
Had to cross that dang bridge twice a year until I started working from home. Don't miss it at all. I was always terrified someone was gonna change lanes and kill everyone
There is ZERO room for error on this bridge. I cringe every time I have to cross it and I have been driving it since '73. I try to avoid it at night if possible.
I've dangled a "semi" off a bridge or three in my time.
Somehow, no. I can’t believe the truck stayed hitch to the trailer, especially when they pulled it back up.
And get this…
THE DAMN BRIDGE IS OPEN AGAIN!
I guess they just put caution tape over the giant hole in the side of the bridge.
I love the people who were saying the toll bridges should be free until they re-opened it…at least you know it’s new and safe.
Can’t imagine there’s much that’s more interesting in southern Indiana than there is in Louisville.
