    Waking the dead. That bridge is marked 13'5 now. I accidently got off the highway there once and had to go under. I was loaded 45k Prostar daycab with 53ft container. I did make it.

    Not a bridge, but when New Mexico built it's first super coupe, at gallop, and finally finished it and started to pull a truck in, they had built it too low for a van. Back to the drawing board and they raised the door, then tried to pull a truck in. They had built the pit that you pull over too wide for a truck to drive over, once again, back to the drawing board. I always wondered who they used for an engineer to design the thing. lol
