Lumber truck bending the support column

To expand. The lumber accident that bent the bridge's support beam and scattered 2x4s in the Charles River. It also caused one of the worst traffic backups that morning... I still remember that being one of the last hurrahs of this bridge before it was torn down. The TV stations talked about it non-stop as well.
