What the heck is wrong with the people that kept driving after clearly seeing a semi crush a patrol car?! I'd at least stop to make sure there was no one in it.
In a similar but sad story, a tractor trailer went off the Chesapeake Bay Bridge on Thursday as well. When it first happened, they were saying it was the wind. Winds were gusting to 60 MPH. Now they're saying it was driver error. Sounds like some CYA to me (bridge should have been closed to trucks and trailers). The driver survived the fall and was seen standing on top of his floating rig. A Navy combat helicopter crew on a training mission saw it happen and fished him from the top of the rig. Sadly, he died on the way to the hospital.
