A dump trailer truck with its dumper raised slammed into a Georgia highway overpass early Thursday morning so hard that it moved it six feet. "It's something our engineers have never seen before," a Georgia Department of Transportation spokesperson said. The incident took place around 1:30 a.m. on Interstate 16 in Soperton where it passes under SR-86. No one was injured and it hasn't yet been determined if the dumper full of tractor tires was in the wrong position due to driver error or a malfunction. The major artery that connects Macon and Savannah will be closed in both directions until the bridge deck is demolished and lanes are cleared.
