The bridge was closed (by a mere) 30 minutes before the partial collapse, that's why there were no casualties. Not sure why was the red truck there.

A section of a bridge on the Xiamen-Chengdu Expressway in Guizhou province collapsed on Tuesday morning following a landslide brought on by prolonged heavy rainfall. No casualties have been reported.

The collapse occurred at about 7:40 am in Sandu county as a truck was crossing the bridge. The driver was rescued by emergency teams, according to local authorities.

Highway patrol officers first observed structural deformation on the bridge as early as 5:51 am and imposed one-way traffic control. A full closure in both directions was implemented by 7:11 am, less than 30 minutes before a portion of the bridge gave way.

An investigation is underway to determine the exact cause of the collapse.
