Mary Lambright reportedly told law enforcement investigators that she had missed her exit and was planning on parking her semi truck at the Paoli Walmart. After she tried unsuccessfully several times to turn the big rig around and pull into the local Walmart, she decided to attempt to cross the Paoli Bridge instead.
Lambright told law enforcement investigators that she did see the weight limit and “no semis” sign but also said that she did not know “how many pounds six tons was.” The tractor-trailer she was driving reportedly weighed close to 30 tons at the time of the Indiana bridge collapse.
She also told police officials that she was uncomfortable backing up the semi truck and that fear played into her decision to drive across the bridge.

Remember that the next time you are along side one :E
