It’s like ten pounds of potatoes in a five pound sack.

A Paoli bridge collapsed after a tractor-trailer drove onto it, and the truck driver involved in the crash is now facing criminal charges. The historic bridge, which is located in southern Indiana, was completely destroyed during the incident. A math error appears to have been a contributing factor in the driver’s decision to cross the landmark Lick Creek bridge.

The downtown Lick Creek bridge will be closed for several weeks and possibly months before any efforts to rebuild the local landmark can begin. 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.

got a little list

I think the driver would have made it with enough speed…
