They put those signs there for a reason, well the idiot knows first hand now

agoodall 10-16-2009 03:52 PM

97TurboDSM 10-17-2009 02:14 AM

namdoogwerdna 10-17-2009 02:32 AM

hahahahah my ex lives back there

Bizee 10-17-2009 07:15 AM

i saw someone do that under the el, it was badass

2drStunner 10-17-2009 07:18 AM

LOL! Dumba**. I dont think airing down is gonna help with that much of a difference in height.

CHAOS 10-17-2009 07:25 AM

lol my buddy got stuck in traffic from that on his way back from lunch

FocusDude 10-17-2009 08:17 AM

That looks exactly like S. Flowers Mill Rd. (I know it's not). When I worked at BCAP there would be a average of one truck a month getting stuck underneath the railroad bridge, how that really screwed up our delivery route. And there are plenty of signs...

:facepalm:

Since when were trucks 13'6?

The wrecker I drove while towing only ever hit mid 12's at best, and I sat higher than any tractor trailer. Plus, the wedge in that pic is totally not a 2' wedge. I'd say closer to 6".

1988 Olds 10-17-2009 10:55 AM

LOL I seen a ryder truck getting towed down the Turnpike yesterday that looked like someone did the same thing with yesterday. And ya Jesus didn't think they were that tall either.
