11 Foot 8 Inches
« on: February 15, 2015, 04:37:53 AM »
You would think the word would be out by now...

This low bridge in Durham North Carolina is the scene of several crashes.  The video below is a compilation of many of the crashes.

What sucks is that those campers that went under it probably didn't even know that they had lost parts until they tried to turn their AC on at the camp ground. You feel very little from those trailers when you are pulling a 5th wheel camper.

However, after reading into it, it's their own damn fault. They have a height sensor for vehicles that are close to the maximum height.

I visited their site out of curiosity. :)
