    This should be a test question for new drivers: If your trailer height is 13' 6", can you drive under any bridge lower than that? :scratch:

    They successfully PARKED on a Parkway.
    No ability to understand HIGH Way usually affords clearance, depending upon Load Height, not driver mental clarity.

    I LOVE Seeing Videos and pictures of these mental midgets not allowing Trailer SWING room.

    The best way to prevent this is to stay at least 250 miles from NYC.

    The problem is that just means they’ll strike a low clearance bridge/tunnel somewhere else (Upstate NY,Pennsylvania,Massachusetts,Maine,etc.). Take your pick!
     
    JC1971 and Boondock Thank this.
