McKinney, Texas recovery crews held a flatbed tow truck that crashed into a stalled vehicle and went through the bridge wall on the Sam Rayburn Tollway, also known as Highway 121, at Hardin Boulevard, with the cab hanging over the overpass and resolved in approximately four hours with the driver rescued safely, according to CBS Texas. The incident drew local and national coverage of high-stakes urban recoveries.
Operator takeaway
Bridge-edge recoveries depend on rotator availability, fire-department coordination, and live traffic shut-downs in minutes. Identify the closest rotator to your dispatch area and the cell phone number of the fire-department officer who runs the call.
