Advanced collision warning going off over bridge! Everytime?

This has me intrigued to what might cause this. I have had my truck a little over 4 months and this happened the 1st week I had and many times since. When I cross a bridge from Ashland, KY to Ohio my BRAKE! Collision warning light goes off in the same spot every time. No cars around. All I can think off is the steel in the bridge or some type radio waves or something being transmitted from the bride. It is a Cantilevered steel bridge. It is clock work, same spot on the bridge everytime. I have to pull over a mile down the road and restart the truck to reset the computer or the advanced collision warning stays off. Pusseling?

That would suck if a false alarm causes the truck to auto-engage the brakes in addition to the warning light and chime

The senors/camera (does it have a camera?) are apparently picking something up which the computer is determining will likely cause a crash... mine went off the other day as I was exiting our under building parking, the exit is a roll up steel mesh grate.

Great point! Probably the angle of the bridge roadway and the height of the steel beam at the spot cause the false alarm.
