Every time a truck hits any bridge it makes it weak. This is so dangerous. Over time one day a bridge is going to give way.
Ur absolutely right
So either the driver doesn't know the height of the truck. Because all bridges have a huge clearance sign with height limit. OR The bridge itself is sinking. It does happen. Over time the ground starts to sink slightly. The pillars holding up the bridge sink just a few inches. No one notices, don't think the city really pays attention or even cares.
They only teach you this during the course like 25 times . Company should be fined and individual driver.
Never mind. I don’t be understanding how these company trucks pass by there every single day yet always find ways to get stuck! Like do they not let each other know their truck sizes don’t fit?
