    I’ve seen lots of these kinds of accidents, but I’ve never seen heavy equipment do that much damage to a solid steel bridge

    This really isn't much of a surprise, considering what is being hired as truck drivers now a days! No longer are they considered "professional" drivers!

      All loads are marked with 5th wheel height and overall height. No excuses for these types of accidents. It's just sheer negligence on the driver's part.

      I haul 9-axle rgn with these excavators on the daily, and there is no way that boom should have been raised that high, unless the driver set it down flat instead of curled the bucket in. Sheer laziness from the driver's side.

      @@kevinmessier8737it’s odd that the boom is high touching the bridge with no truck underneath it. As an operator myself I believe it hit the bridge, there’s no way it would have been knocked off the lowbed, then they pulled the excavator off the low bed and positioned it to support the bridge.

    Why don't they just deflate the tires, duh!!

      It has steel tracks NOT tires, they can’t be deflated!

      They tried that, but there’s no place to let the air out. They even tried puncturing the tires, but it kept bouncing back. Then they tried a torch but it wouldn’t melt. Any other suggestions you may have would be helpful

      @@my3dviews I think we already got past the part it was on the truck when it struck the bridge, hence, the truck is gone and excavator is still there and as the reporter said “it will be there for many days” and NO TRUCK, just a stuck excavator WITH STEEL TRACKS!,,,

      Likely lots of damage to it. But, the cost to fix it is nothing compared to what the bridge repairs will cost. I say, send him the bill.

    This should be a huge fine. The sheer ignorance for the work and time it takes to build these structures to just blatantly not be aware of the height of your load when transporting

    • @my3dviews
      @my3dviews Рік тому

      Right. Send them a bill for the repairs, plus a fine. Every truck driver must know the height of their truck with the load. All bridges have the clearance height on a sign. No excuse for what happened.

    There's no trailer here, so the excavator must have gone flying off and landing on the ground when it hit the bridge?

    Whether Overpasses in Edmonton or B.C., a Highway Crossing the Trans Canada in Manitoba, a Truck is involved, now is this a coincidence, just accidents, what are the odds?

    • @my3dviews
      @my3dviews Рік тому

      What are the odds? The odds that when a vehicle's load hits an overpass? 100% of the time it is a truck. There are accidents all the time, but the ones that made the news often involve trucks because they cause more damage than when a small vehicle is involved.
      By the way, the bus accident wasn't the fault of the truck driver, but the bus driver.
