Bridge Education
The same thing happened to us on a tiny mountain road in NE Alabama three weeks
ago. We could not turn around but got lucky with two consecutive one lane 24 ton
weight restricted bridges over a gorge. It still makes you pucker up. I plan to
stay closer to the major highways and take the car on excursions.

We were up to New Brunswick our 1st time out and our GPS put us in
front of a bridge that was 11' high with a 6 ton weight limit. Of
course we're 12.5' high and over 50,000 lbs wet. Luckily, no traffic
and we were able to back it out of there without incident. Lesson
learned: Stay on the interstates as much as possible.
