How would you like to have been the first officer on the scene?

Does the accident report start out, "Well, there was this bridge and a guy with a track hoe.."

it looks like the impact caused the arm to raise up

notice how the entry wound does not meet the road bed

i guess in bridge vs hoe
da hoe wins

Happy Valentines day

could you imagine having been ON the bridge when that happened? Talk about a bad hair day!

 any bets on wether that driver still works as a driver?

I don't think $134,000 is all that much, seems low to me.

saw a guy try that with a aluminum sailboat mast and some power lines. Blacked out the whole town and turned his mast into an interesting sculpture. Rubber tires save lives though- he lived!

I hope no one was hurt.  Assuming there were no injuries, I don't feel bad about saying "That is friggin' awesome!"
Am I the only one who loves good destruction like this?

Couldn't have been the tires - they are chock full of carbon black, and conduct electricity.  Thats why you don't get zapped by static electricity when you step out of the car - unless your wool suit reacts to the upholstery!
