 On 12 February 2007 another accident occurred when a truck was travelling down the freeway and lost control approaching the bridge, smashing through a guard rail and plunging 30 metres down an embankment at the side of the bridge.The Mooney Mooney Bridge, because of its height, has been susceptible in the past to people committing suicide.As a result, a fence was erected along the side of the bridge to prevent people jumping off.
