The bridge moved slightly off the 4X6 a few times at West Michigan. This usually occured after a fast traverse of the bridge left it bouncing. The result was that it's impossible to balance the bridge unless you can manage to push or pull it into place.

I got the impression that this is nearly impossible to detect from the player station, but the announcer did say the bridge was no longer centered. I don't know if it's possible to hear his comments when you're driving, but listen up if you're having problems and try a different approach.
