GREAT.....this should be done to every numbnut that has any sort of crash this stupid.
make that so-called driver seek employment at a $20 an hour donut shop.JoeyJunk Thanks this. -
Not even Swift drivers doing “Full Swift” are this bad.
I can’t wrap my head around this- how on God’s green earth did a driver think that her 13’6’ high truck would fit through a bridge that only has a 11’ 10” clearance? -
Devils advocate:
There was no mention the time of day the driver went through nor the conditions.
Personal example was delivering to a store at 3am in an Atlanta suburb. Fog as thick as it can be up in the Blueridge. Turn into the store lot looking for the dock and didn't see it. Came out, hit the main road and did another circuit around. 3rd time fog lifted just enough to where I could see that when you entered the lot I was staring straight at the dock which was maybe 100 ft away, but passed it the other times because it was obscured by the fog.blairandgretchen, 201 and Numb Thank this. -
A narrow and one way road should be a pretty big indicator to anyone with a decades worth of experience or anyone with an IQ above 100. I bet if one were to Google Maps Street View the road they would see plenty of signage warning drivers of what's ahead.Gearjammin' Penguin, Sons Hero, gentleroger and 4 others Thank this.

Irrelevant... if the fog is thick enough that you can't stop within your sight distance, you slow down, or just park it. To do otherwise is to deserve the crash that is about to happen.Gearjammin' Penguin, gentleroger, Studebaker Hawk and 3 others Thank this.
