"The driver of a Ford F-750 truck loaded up with crushed gravel reportedly missed the warnings before attempting to cross the span on August 23. The truck was estimated to have weighed about 30,000 lbs over the span’s limit, so when it drove onto the bridge it smashed through the crossing and crashed into the Presumpscot River below, as CarScoops explains:

The incident happened on Friday, August 23, at Babb’s Bridge, which spans the Presumpscot River and connects Gorham and Windham. As one of Maine’s oldest and few remaining covered bridges, Babb’s Bridge has seen a lot—though likely not quite as much as it did that day.

A few seconds after its wheels touched the wooden floor, the truck fell through, plummeting into the river. The driver somehow escaped with only minor injuries, and fortunately, no one else was hurt in the fall. The heavy vehicle was later towed out with the help of a crane, revealing significant damage to its bodywork.

The historic bridge was reportedly rated to only carry vehicles up to 6,000 lbs, reports the Portland Press Herald. As the driver of the enormous truck failed to spot the warning signs highlighting the limit of the bridge, they have now been given a $2,500 citation for attempting to drive the 36,000-pound truck across Babb’s Bridge...."
