    HELLLLOOOO It says 13'6" on the nose corner of the trailer.. If it doesnt then your trailer is in violation.
    His ignorance doesnt get my sympathy at all.

    You are so right, But this bridge is painted with flor. orange and more signage then any 5 bridges. and a stop sign 100'-150' away
    and the some signs are at the stop sign.
    We all make mistakes
    We are held more accountable then Doctors, Lawyers, or anybody..

    Agreed ! !

    I always trust my GPS--that's why I had my truck outfitted with pontoons and airbags.

    i know that bridge. it's well marked. we've hauled into that customer when we were OTR. i wonder if he actually is a newbie or if he hired onto knight with experience.
