Video: Car plunges off Saint Paul bridge

There aren’t many drivers who haven’t thought what it would be like to end up flying off a bridge they were crossing.

It happened on I-694 on the I-35E ramp in Saint Paul this morning.

“This is why we’re urging people to slow down, pay attention and watch out for icy bridges and ramps. The motorist walked away from this crash without serious injuries,” according to MnDOT.

It’s perfect for these sorts of accidents on many bridges as ice has built up along the edges of the highways, making a nice ramp for getting over the side.

Also: Kudos to the one driver who pulled over, presumably to help.
