ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Rescue workers assisted a driver whose truck somehow partially crashed over a barrier on the Sunshine Skyway Bridge.
The incident happened just after 8 a.m. Friday in the southbound lanes of Interstate 275 toward Manatee County.
Images from Sky 10 showed the front end of the truck extending past the concrete barrier and hanging over the water. It never appeared to be in danger of toppling over.
A driver did not see how slow the truck was going in front of them, which caused their car to crash into the back of the truck's trailer, according to a Florida Highway Patrol crash report. The collision then caused the truck to partially hop the concrete barrier.
The truck has since been removed, and the interstate no longer is completely blocked to traffic.
The truck and car drivers were taken to an area hospital.
