A truck driver is lucky to have escaped unharmed after he followed his GPS onto a small Arkansas bridge and wound up in a river.
The incident happened around 8 p.m. on Wednesday, January 30, in the Yell County town of Ola, according to a report from THV 11.
Director of the Yell County Office of Emergency Management Bill Gilkey says that the unnamed semi truck driver was hauling a load of processed chicken to Danville when his GPS device led him to the Dale Bend Bridge.
