It is not the kind of news you wish for when you are on the wheel thinking about getting through slow-moving traffic to your destination.

But this morning the Rivers State Capital, Port Harcourt, a trailler fell of a bridge and flattened a car on the road below.

You would have thought it would be the other way round and the car would travel through a bridge when heavy trailers are stopped from travelling through high bridges - not that the bridges are even new builds.

Pedestrians at Refinery Road in Eleme part of Port Harcourt were shocked when the trailer fell off the bridge Wednesday morning.

But, according to reports, thankfully, no life was lost in the incident.
