I've been trucking since 1980. I crossed these about two years ago, I'll never forget it. The first bridge shook me up, the second one made me cry as soon as I reached land. I was on two bridges that collapsed shortly after I crossed. The first was the big bridge in Tampa when the barge hit it. The second was the I-85 interchange bridge in Atlanta a few years ago. It was on fire at rush hour, fell 20 minutes after I crossed. I'm not scared of much, but bridges freak me out.
thanks for the comment I probably could not drive across that bridge if i did I would have to drive in the middle of the bridge with my flasher going moving over of course with on coming traffic probably be a little dangerous but I would be careful if that make sense
I am always nervous going over these bridges. When I see another semi coming in the other lane I cringe. In the beginning of my trucking years... I hated heights! I had a death grip on the wheel. I am better now 😊. I used to work at Land Between the Lakes. I crossed the bridge everyday going to work that was hit by a barge. I traveled it the day it was hit. Scary!!
I remember going across those back in fall 1994; , you felt like you were going to Fall off. The truck stop was neat, it had fuel barges tied up to service the pumps instead of underground tankage.
Been over those bridges hundreds of times. Still makes my butthole pucker. The building at the intersection used to be a truck stop of sorts, they had good food.
I remember that truck Stop. When I first moved to Murray, KY I drove my children down, so we could cross the two bridges. We stopped at the station. Grabbed drinks, and turned around. It was scary in a car! No words for driving across in a semi!
Agreed. Crossed these bridges just a couple days ago, both ways, a few days apart. As you can see, the truck is completely on his own side of the yellow line. In a normal car, it's no big deal.
The second bridge, into Missouri is the worst of the two. The joins between the bridge segments absolutely suck, so you are bouncing up and down the entire way over the bridge. So you get narrow ass sketchy bridge that is high up over the water and you feel like you are going to bounce off the bridge at any moment. Fun times!
I just can't get over how stinking narrow they are and also how LONG they are...blows my mind how long you're on it before you can "see light at the end of the tunnel". YUCK, hate those bridges!

😀😀😀😃😃
I grew up in this area and these bridges along with the Brookport, IL bridge will forever haunt me! No desire to go back!
I worked at Land Between the Lakes when the bridge was hit.. those bridges were as bad as these two.

I be been over them before driving an 18 wheeler, scared me tremendously
I never want to go over those again,
I’m retired now
I got to cross twice in one day. Too much fun for one day lol. We are enjoying our new run from Mississippi to California and back.
Drove over both Bridges a few years ago but it was real late at night, it's more terrifying in the day, these Bridges will haunt my dreams forever
I am so happy Land Between the Lakes updated their bridges that where small like these
Yep. Been a long time but I remember.
