That one truck had a trash compactor container that hit it. I'm surprised that bridge is still standing. My brother has a 13' 5" 5er toy hauler...he has to watch very carefully...I remember him driving thru a PA. State Park to his site trimming all the trees for the state park free of charge...Looking down the street at all the branches now on the roadway.

In the 50s my Mom was the manager of a toy store in Jacksonville FL. The owner tried to put a rental truck under the Myrtle St railroad bridge. This was a long time before airbags. He almost lost his ears after going through the windshield.

We are from the Raleigh/Durham area and see on the news quite often where someone picked a fight with that bridge and lost every time. Frank knows our height and if it looks remotely close, he doesn't try it.

Wonder why they never dug the road surface down?
