The collapse happened at a section of highway that merges Interstate 75 and Interstate 24.

The car was under the bridge when it collapsed but the driver wasn't seriously injured.

All lanes were blocked as crews clean up the concrete.

Workers also will need to inspect the bridge and figure out the full extent of the damage before lanes could be reopened. Repairs are expected to take weeks.
