They showed pictures of the sink hold on TV this morning. The hold involved both lanes. It is amazing that no one ran into the hole or got hurt. There is a lot of traffic along that stretch of highway. I wonder if the TDOT vehicle that was following the truck that went into the medium was a bear? In any case, it is great that there were no injuries or accidents due to the hole.

I haven't heard about anyone getting hurt, but it must have been a nightmare for law enforcement until they got the detour started.
That sounds about right.
They wouldn't dare fix it for the well-being of everyone. They jumped on it, so they can weigh trucks. I wouldn't doubt it. Sounds like something they would do around here. :lol:
