Donnersberger Brücke go-slow

Truck blocking two lanes - Wednesday 10.Jan.2007

If you're planning to drive over Donnersbergerbrücke in the direction of Westend then perhaps find an alternate route. A truck is blocking two of the three lanes as you come onto the bridge.



And what's worse, he appears to be leaking beer!!!



Check out the skid marks from the 3-series running right the way around the truck.

No cops on the scene yet and traffic is backed up as far as I can see.

Three vehicles involved. The truck, the BMW and a Mini which is stopped about 75m or so further up the bridge. Didn't see whatever happened but there were loud skidding sounds for about 10 seconds.

I bet he's down scoping out the leaking beer situation, in the public interest, of course.

Plod's arrived and got the truck to move so at least only one lane is blocked now.





I'm on the fifth floor of the building across the road.

Still VERY slow southbound onto Thundermountainbridge innit.

They've all just pulled away now so it should start to free up shortly.

Oddly enough, despite the obvious and substantial spillage out the back of the truck, I didn't see them open the doors to check for damage. That's my primary concern here. Someone's not going to get a beer delivery today and that's sad.

That bridge is a pain in various body parts with cars and trucks zipping on across three lanes or zipping off across two lanes, I hate crossing it in any direction, even underneath it as drivers take the straight lane towards town and then sneak into the left-turning lane to go west up the bridge while the stoopids in the left-turning lane before the bridge are still on red.

Try getting across that junction as a pedestrian. dry.gif
