Anybody know any more? Last I heard, still searching for the other car which they believe is trapped under the tractor trailer. The driver of the 18 wheeler has been rescued

Two vehicles drives off Twin Span into Lake Pontchartrain, search for driver underway

NOPD says at this time both westbound lanes of the Twin Span, heading into Orleans Parish from St. Tammany are closed due to the investigation.

I almost got ran off the twin span by some idiot not paying attention. Good thing I had space to swerve out of the way.

Okay, so it was apparently a box truck and no other car was under it in the water. So amazingly, no fatalities.

Louisiana has highest auto insurance rates in county. Looks like that trend will continue.
