State Trooper Mark Francis told the Skagit Valley Herald the driver works for Mullen Trucking in Alberta. The tractor-trailer, which was marked as an oversize load, was hauling a housing for drilling equipment to Vancouver, Wash., he said. The top right front corner of the load struck several trusses on the north end of the bridge, Francis said.
An accident report said the driver was William Scott of Spruce Grove, Alberta, near Edmonton.
Though local radio talk mentioned the possibility that some other truck forced this one to the right, giving less over head clearance.
There is some curvature in the overhead truss members. But those are details the investigators will dig into.
