    It doesn't matter. An idiot is an idiot. Period.

    Right at the Vavenby turnoff. Visibility on that corner is a lot worse than the camera shows. Sad thing is there's about 3 or 4 very good stretches of highway in the next 15-20 km to safely pass.

    Highway 5 is full of idiots like that. Its rare that I don't see dumb###ery like that every time I head into BC on that highway.

    For those unaware they hit this same bridge in spring .. their owner op had their name on the door .. ironically they say they have a exemplary safety record I’m guessing the 6 bridge strikes in 2023 were owner ops . The $500 fines wasn’t enough to scare them maybe getting shut down during the investigation will.
