11foot8 bridge gets another

That rotator has to be at least $1,000 an hour, right?

 

Anywhere from $1,000 to $1,400 on average. And that’s just for them to SHOW UP at the accident scene!!! Never mind the cost per hour that they work!

 

Aren’t day cabs normally locals? Must be a rookie.

 

It’s like y’all are rooting for the bridge.

 

I kinda AM rooting for the bridge.

I've never been there, but from what I've read about it, the approach roads are plainly marked with low clearance signs, they painted the crash beam on the bridge yellow, they put in the overheight detector, and most recently sync'd the traffic light to the overheight detector, so if you trip the detector you get a red light, and the detector is about a half block from the intersection.

I mean, I KNOW shhhhhhtuff happens, but....what else can ya do to "driver-proof" it?

 

Bridges like these weed out the unworthy.

 

Indeed. All the warnings in the world this bridge is equipped with and yet there those who press their luck,with predictable results..

 

The compilation video of trucks (mostly high cube straight trucks) is quite entertaining.

I showed it to my wife the other day. She replied, "the city needs to do something about this!" I just laughed
