Truck leaves raised bed behind beneath overpass
The raised bed of a big rig was ripped from the truck beneath an overpass in Arizona on Thursday afternoon.
The incident happened on October 21st in Mesa, Arizona at around 4 p.m.
According to AZ Family News, the semi truck was traveling along the Loop 202 Red Mountain Freeway with the bed raised when it struck the overpass, tearing the raised bed from the truck.
Luckily, no one was hurt and no other vehicles were damaged, but the incident did do some damage to a road sign attached to the overpass.
The reason behind the raised bed is still unknown.
ADOT's IRU crews are out on Loop 202 Red Moutnain at Greenfield and snapped some shots of the reason for this closure.
