The trucks affected were all pretty much the same height, so the bridge being just slightly lower than the height of the majority of trucks on the road is really the stupid part. But then if they raised the height of the bridge and there are still trucks crashing into it then someone didn't bother to do any research into the height of the trucks that are likely to need to pass under it on a normal day.Stonygroundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05944351764672688275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183651835847025449.post-4071954394260671042023-03-20T23:05:35.137-05:002023-03-20T23:05:35.137-05:00There is a 9'-6" clearance bridge just 2 ...There is a 9'-6" clearance bridge just 2 miles from the house, with BIG warning signs 2 miles in the other direction stating low clearance etc There is always a pile of something laying around that got raked off.

But we now have awesome tools such as, upgraded GPS, clearance maps, low clearance travel books, state web sites, hell Rand McNally has a special atlas for truckers thats has all the low shit listed. There is no excuse. Do your map recon of your route, it’s not that fookin hard now-a-daz.
