A truck driver crossing a bridge in Louisiana had his very bad day caught on traffic cam after an incident with his container chassis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The accident was filmed<\/a> on February 17th on the Interstate 10\u00a0 Calcasieu River Bridge in Louisiana.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the video, the truck driver is hauling an empty container chassis when it appears to break in half<\/a>. The back end of the chassis then smashes into the highway divider wall, throwing up dust until the semi truck finally comes to a stop straddling both lanes with the back end of the chassis on the opposite side of the interstate.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Traffic manages to stop in time and starts to back up, even though there appears to be room for vehicles to pass on the right.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Watch the unfortunate occurrence, below.<\/p>\n
