    Tall 24's would have prevented this.

    Perhaps the landing gear wasn't rolled up all the way ?

    Yes maybe,but that bumped looked pretty big.I remember this customer I use to deliver to my trailer got caught on one of their slopes.After so many times I learned my lesson and had one of their yards guys back it in and move it out.Some trailers sit lower then others.

    turning onto the correct street also would have prevented this... he only missed by 1.3 miles... his turn was onto southridge parkway, not 12th street.

    You know what really sucks. This driver will make it harder for the local trucks if they erect no truck signs. Some Local brainwashed revenue generating LEO will be aggressively watching that section for months. Would be nice to have a generic sign warning of low trailers something to that effect.

    I don't envy Lowboy and household drivers. You folks really earn your pay, Then a CR england driver comes along and gives every driver a bad name lol
