Airport pedestrian walkway downed by wayward semi truck
A pedestrian walkway was seriously damaged after a semi truck attempted to drive under it at the Palm Beach International airport on Sunday night.
The incident occurred on October 11th in Palm Beach County, Florida.
According to WPTV News, the truck was driving in the arrival lanes at the airport when it tried to pass underneath a pedestrian walkway with a 13 foot clearance. The force of the impact appears to have knocked off a piece of the walkway, which landed on the truck cab, and even caused a water leak from the bridge.
