Some people don't seem to either know the height of their vehicle and/or how to read bridge height signs...
I had a vehicle ops driver like that...he left the forklift in the road...it had been knocked off the trailer when he hit the bridge...

I was sitting in a Red Lobster restaurant and whitnessed a school bus trying to drive under their covered drive. The bus hit the roof and damaged the wooden beam, then backed up and took off. I wrote downthe bus # and school district and gave it to the manager. There are some good school bus drivers out there but they are few and far between.
