All you smart arse truck drivers ain't got squat to say now. Believe it ir not truckers, there are bad drivers amongst you just like the regular public.
That shows that bridge is too high.

We know that. If you've got a problem with "smart arse truck drivers", I question your driving skills. You are too defensive. Sounds like you doubt your own skills and need validation.
I found that comment weird as well.
If I recall, the last accident on the bridge involving a vehicle going over, it was a truck driver who DIED rather than crushing the car of the driver who cut him off.
When stuff like this happens, stop with the stupid unkind comments.
I am just happy this poor woman is alive, that her car went off at 22 or 27 feet instead of much higher, that she kept her head together and is ALIVE!
I think the point of the comment , though convoluted, is referring to when this article first posted and there were several truck drivers in the comments blaming the driver of the car and not the truck driver.
I hope they checked that truck driver's phone for texts, calls etc. I see people behind me texting and it scares me to death.
I have my CDL and so does my husband. We talked about this article. We both concluded even if you are from a different country, commercial drivers are held to a higher standard. I don't think it should be blamed on his first solo trip in the U.S.Sounds like a lame excuse to me.
I am so thankful the girl survived. I saw her on TV shortly after and she was so traumatized.
All drivers need to be more attentive. It was painful to watch and listen to the girl describe how scared she was.
Be glad when this disappears, like the comments I send in. Poof, never to be seen again.
