A semi-truck sits stopped on the I-10 bridge in Lake Charles, La., after Hurricane Rita pushed ashore Saturday.

The truck is stuck heading Westbound. The Northeast shore of lake Lake Charles is visible to the right side of the truck.

This is also a very tall bridge. Back in the 1960s, my dad would slow down towards the top of the bridge to use his car radio to talk to his Beaumont office 100 miles away...

The Baton Rouge Mississippi River bridge (I-10) may be taller...
