A Mainer who ignored a “Road Closed” sign almost drove straight into a giant hole on Sunday.
The pickup truck driver was traveling on Woodman Hill Road, which was posted with “Road Closed” signs, according to Jay Fire & Rescue.
Flash flooding washed out the road in late June, according to the Sun Journal, and a giant hole now stretches from one side to the other.
The driver might have ended up in the hole if it weren’t for a large dirt pile that “fortunately” was in the way, according to Jay Fire & Rescue.
The driver wasn’t injured.
The Jay Select Board is seeking bids from contractors to repair washed out sections of Woodman Hill Road, the Sun Journal reported.
