For those of us that travel the Myra coming from Porters Lake and are used to just "bumping " up onto the bridge . DON'T!!!!! There's about five boards and then you have air.  |

wow. I drove on that bridge on one of my last runs. However, there was a support beam hanging then, and it was a bit sketchy at the time.   That kindof sucks, because it was actually a very good bridge. |

Once we got buddy's kee off the bridge it was around 2:30am and we didn't have enough light to chance a crossing.Turned around and went back through Porter's Lake.

Did he drive off?Need a tow?$hat his pants? ;D He came in from the airport, was mostly over when it collasped. His rear tires were over the back edge, front tires still on the what was left of the bridge. Winch would not work, he had to clean up the cables/terminals, and then winched himself out. None the worse for wear and didn't seem too fazed by the ordeal! |
