    I guess long concrete loads such as this will need crash skirts to protect cars. :rolleyes:

    There was no OSHA warning label on it that says;
    "Warning, do not attempt to drive under concrete pillar!"

    Gotta have a label on it or some people just may not know...

    You joke.....in this day and age though? Someone is going to try and sue over something like this using that argument, get a stacked jury and win.
