In this Feb. 7, 2013 photo, a Chinese woman sells North Korean souvenirs in Dandong, China, opposite the North Korean town of Sinuiju. China’s patience with North Korea is wearing thin, and a widely-expected nuclear weapons test by the latter could bring that frustration to a head. Beijing signaled its growing unhappiness by agreeing to tightened U.N. sanctions after North Korea launched a rocket in December, eliciting harsh criticism from Pyongyang and comment from China watchers surprised by Beijing’s unusually tough line.

To the truck driver: read the sign dummy. You can't just cross over any bridge without knowing the AXLE weight limit on those bridges. :p

truly an idiot!!!! even if there are NO signs he MUST have known his truck was too heavy for the bridge! Either he was drunk or maybe a 1st time inexperience driver but shame on the company then if they put someone like that driving such a massive load. should start by driving the UPS truck first.
