I lived by a historic covered bridge as a kid. The people in the area would have been PISSED if something like this happened. The bridge was originally designed for horses and buggies, so if your vehicle weighed too much, you couldn't go on it.

MODERATORS
I think the front end is commonly used for heavy duty commercial purposes like dump trucks, but selling it for consumer purposes should be illegal.

This is the opening plot to Beetlejuice
Edit 3: I know nobody here is going to miss me, but I'm going to block this community and I feel it's fair for me to get to explain why. I've frequented this community since I came from reddit and the comments always come across as "us vs them" to the point of hostility toward each other. It's really not kind or welcoming. I hope you all have a nice day and find that feeling of welcomeness that I was looking for
Edit 2: Are people just angry? I ask a genuine question and get two snide remarks as answers. Lemmy is proving to be NO better than reddit
Is it just me or does the bridge on the left look like it has concrete flooring? If so, why didn't they just get two pictures of the actual affected bridge?
Edit: please don't just downvote me. I'm asking a question because I don't know the answer
The bridge on the left is the same bridge and has the same wooden flooring. It might just be hard for you to see in the shadows.
You are getting downvoted for saying it isn't the same bridge in both pictures.

Why didn't they think of taking pictures before the bridge was destroyed! Oh the humanity!

The view through that hole in the bridge looks like something out of Soul Reaver.
At least it ended funny
