I agree with Blu here...if you're going to try something that you KNOW is probably not designed for your weight (come on...its a rickety old wooden bridge here) its time for RAMMING SPEED!!!!!

Awesome - sorry about the house owner and the truck driver, but here's a clear case of not planning ahead. Oops...Have to send this in for the safety team's inspection.

I'm glad the power unit made it across before the bridge collapsed. Looks like nobody got anything hurt but their wallet.

Two questions -

Where did this happen?

How did they get it back on the road?

Lots of jacks, lots of bracing, 2 long I beams, and lots of nail biting... That's what I'm betting.


Either that or a crane. Possibly with a wrecking ball

a very good freind of mine moves houses for a living. when he applies for his permits to haul, they give him the hrs. he can travel and the route HE MUST TAKE without exception. possibly the state is at fault to some extent here.
