Police said the driver is suspected of being under the influence from using “whippits.”Locke, who witnessed the incident, said he hit the emergency stop and the bridge jammed. “Over he went, blew out all four of his tires, and then he crashed into the other gate,” Locke said. A call from police described the incident as something from “Dukes of Hazzard.” Locke said he called it “The Blues Brothers.”“That’s a first for me,” Lock said.
