    Happen to me in Arkansas once on a 2 lane with swamps on both sides , no shoulder and an other oversize coming the other way,,we barely passed with about 2 inches to spare, my next scare came about 4 miles down the road with a bridge about 400ft long that was posted 20 tons limit, I was 132,000lbs and since the truck going the other way that I barely squeezed by was a 9 axle hauling a D-9 had made it I figured why not and kept going.

    Prolly US 64. Where the pilot cars say, "Skinny bridge. Skinny bridge. Skinny bridge. And another skinny bridge. Guess what, driver? Another skinny bridge."
