I steered truck the best i could considering the truck was uncontrollable. The rear end of the truck climbed over the bridge throwing the truck nearly on its side landing in oncoming traffic facing opposite direction of travel 60ft. Away from bridge. My truck appears to be totaled. I owe more than the value of the truck and now. My employee and myself were treated to local hospital i now have a hernia from the impact of the truck into the bridge.. Due to suspension.
