WBZ reports how a dump truck somehow hit the bottom of an overpass on 128 in Lexington this morning, snarling traffic like nobody's business.

Lots of things are possible when a dump truck driver doesn't make sure the dump bed is ALL the way back down & locked before they pull away from where they were dumping gravel/fill/asphalt/whatever...

Driving around with the bed raised accidentally would be the easiest way for a dump truck to strike an overpass.

Truck 0, overpass 1.

That overpass, however, needs some love. If I had uneasy feelings using it before, I think I'm going to start avoiding it after this incident.
