VIDEO: Sticky... Dump Truck Bed Slams Into Pedestrian Bridge in Turkey!



We don't know if this dumpster's truck bed hydraulics were affected by a similar problem to Toyota's sticky accelerators or if the driver simply forgot to check the bed on his vehicle, but either way, the dump truck caused a huge mess in Turkey when it slammed into a pedestrian bridge over the highway.

The accident happened on Monday, January 25 and it was caught on tape by a surveillance camera.

Amazingly, even though there were three people on the bridge at the time of the impact, only one person - you can see him on the left side of the bridge- sustained injuries, fortunately, not life threatening. Hit the jump for the video.

Kudos to Maria for the find!
