Five warning signs not enough
Australia

AN over-height semi-trailer passed five warning signs before tearing down pipes and lights in the Tugun bypass tunnel on the Gold Coast yesterday and closing northbound lanes for three hours.
Police said the semi-trailer, which was carrying a crushing plant machine, hit the entrance to the south side of the tunnel about 9am Queensland time. The driver could face charges.
"It was loaded to the point were it was too high to go under the tunnel and part of the load has collided with the top of it," said NSW police Senior Constable Mark Warrall.
"It damaged the machinery and the tunnel and the driver kept going to the other side of the tunnel and then pulled up."
A goldcoast.com.au reader witnessed the accident and said the truck hit the tunnel at speed.
