Semi Truck with Load Tipping Off

A truck hauling an oversized load got stuck on Hwy 7 near Lake of the Ozarks on May 19. They finally got it moving, but it crawled down Highway 5 towards Camdenton at a snail's pace, with a traffic control person on foot in front of it.

CAMDEN COUNTY, Mo. — A wide load going around a bend ran into trouble, causing the temporary shutdown of a state highway in Camden County on Tuesday.

Details are sparse, but from images submitted to LakeExpo by readers, the semi-truck pulling an oversized load got stuck while going around a bend on State Highway 7, north of Camdenton. The load appeared to have made contact with the road surface, with some trailer tires coming up off the ground.

The highway was closed while crews helped to get the truck moving again. At around 4 p.m., the truck was seen slowly crawling southbound on Highway 5 toward Camdenton, with someone walking on foot handling traffic control.
