  • The incident amused locals who gathered in large numbers to see the body of the plane wedged under the bridge

In a peculiar turn of events, the fuselage of an aircraft became wedged under the Piprakothi bridge in Bihar's Motihari, triggering a significant traffic snarl in the vicinity.

Local truck drivers and residents swiftly rallied together, lending a hand to dislodge the aircraft debris and ease the traffic gridlock.

This incident eerily echoes a similar occurrence from November last year in Andhra Pradesh's Bapatla district, where another aircraft found itself lodged beneath a road underpass during transportation from Kochi to Hyderabad atop a trailer hitched to a truck.

These unusual incidents underscore the logistical challenges and potential hazards involved in the transportation of oversized cargo, prompting renewed discussions on safety measures and logistical protocols for moving such substantial items across roadways.
