Ok, the driver was " from Texas ". I'll bet the guy "No hable Englais " .

I've never understood how truckers can ram into bridges and tunnels. They sell atlases specifically for truckers. They give you height restrictions for major bridges and tunnels. Plus many of said tunnels have systems installed , flashing lights, hugh signs, etc , warning you well in advance of such restrictions.

As noted, this " super trucker " proceeded anyways, ignoring attempts to stop his dumbass.

There's a railroad bridge over the main street in the next town. It carries a HUGE sign, in red, that says, "WARNING! BRIDGE IS 12 FEET THREE INCHES HIGH! TRUCKS USE ALTERNATE ROUTE!" At least once every three months a semi hits it and gets wedged under it. It then takes a day to get it out. Next quarter, bam! again.

As my late FIL would say, “He’s no truck driver, he’s just a damned wheelholder.”
