No. A highway overpass does not offer protection from a tornado, and actually puts you at greater risk by acting as a wind tunnel, causing wind to speed up. Additionally, by parking under a bridge you can cause traffic to back up, which puts even more people at risk by trapping them in the potential path of a tornado.
If you are caught out doors during a tornado, it is best to find an underground area where the wind can't reach. Don't go somewhere where the wind can flow through as it will possibly intensify wind speeds.
