"Baudelaire was cited for driving on a closed roadway and failure to control his vehicle."
Why wasn't he cited for being to stupid to breathe air?FerrissWheel, 4mer trucker, bzinger and 3 others Thank this. -
there’s a historic covered bridge near me that’s still has traffic over it and despite multiple signs and flashing lights and the dangling pipe things , it got smacked and damaged by trucks every week , the county installed a large steel beam just in front of the bridge .
The steel beam is a breakaway hinge design so when they hit it , it folds forward and hooks the roof and wind shield of the truck ,
It prevents the truck from even getting to the bridge , and Usually totals the truck .Which is the best outcome .
Stupid should hurt .FerrissWheel, Val_Caldera, baha and 4 others Thank this. -
We have construction right now and currently 2 or 3 trucks a week are getting caught under it because they dont follow the detour and stay on pavement rather then the dirt road that is the actual detour and ignore the local trucks only sign.FerrissWheel Thanks this. -
