Getting caught up.

At 2am Sunday morning, a semi turning north onto Lake Road/Avalon Drive got high
centered and broken in half! If you could not get back into Lakewood at that time this
is why. Damage to the bridge was negligible.

I had posted these to the Rockport Observer, but Lakewoodites were asking about it!

The truck got high centered for lack of a better term.

In the end they just dragged it off the ramp.

I found this picture on reddit on the bike sub http://www.reddit.com/r/bicycling

It reminded me so much of the underpass that I had to post it.

I think it would be a great idea to implement it there even...

From the other side (eastbound) , you would be surprised how many trucks coming off Lake ave. make that right turn towards the bridge and then stop just in time...
