A1m north closed at Donny looks like a car gone over the bridge into river down below God help him that’s a long drop
Just saw that on Twitter. Surely no one could survive that drop must be 100 meters at very least.
A man was killed when the car he was in plunged off a motorway and into the River Don in South Yorkshire.
The victim, who has not been named, was found in the vehicle when it was recovered from the water.
The car is believed to have gone into the river, near Doncaster, at about 06:30 BST.
The northbound carriageway of the A1(M) has been closed between junctions 36 and 37 and is expected to remain shut until Sunday afternoon.
South Yorkshire Police said officers remained at the scene and regional underwater search teams were assisting with the operation.
I remember a truck going off the bridge and into the river there a few years ago, that driver didn’t survive either.
Pete.

That lorry went through the guard rail near the end of the bridge and nose dived into the river Bank, If I remember correctly it was an old Dodge artic, terrible mess.
