    • @d.s7741

      I rented on once and had four people in the back playing bombardment while I was going down the road. I hit the brakes hard and you could hear a bunch of bones hitting the floor L.O.L. (the good ol' days)

    • @BewareTheLilyOfTheValley
      @BewareTheLilyOfTheValley 4 года назад +6

      Yeah, I drove one temporarily for my mom, who needed it, because her license was suspended. Absolutely terrifying. Worse yet, the path where we needed to go was full of sharp turns, then a steep hill, then a steep downhill with a stop sign at the bottom. I was so scared my foot wouldn't find the brake to stop, though it was the very first thing I guaged when I got in. I made it back to her apartment complex in it but refused to drive it again after that. I'd rather just let someone else drive it for me, even if it means hiring someone.
      I'm also poor at reversing into parking spots even in a car (I'm partially blind in my right eye and I still don't see that great in my left eye either). So, parking backwards to load or unload things would be hard for me. Also, having assisted in dispatch for XPO Logistics, which handles large deliveries for a multitude of companies, we sometimes got complaints from customers or people who said a driver hit their vehicle or property. Really makes me wonder why America thought it would be a great idea for people to drive such large vehicles, which is a massive upgrade from even an SUV or pickup truck, without any kind of training.

    The Bridge (formally known as the Norfolk Southern-Gregson Street Overpass and nicknamed "The Can-Opener") is a railroad bridge in Durham, North Carolina, US, that has attracted media coverage and popular attention because so many vehicles collide with the unusually low overpass, resulting in damage ranging from RV roof air conditioners being scraped off to entire truck roofs being removed.[1] The 79-year-old bridge along South Gregson Street provides only 11 feet 8 inches (3.56 m) of vertical clearance. It cannot be raised because nearby railroad crossings would also have to be raised with it. The street also cannot be lowered because a major sewer line runs only four feet (1.2 m) under Gregson Street.

      jhnykx -- In the late '70s or early '80s one of my father's 100 thousand dollar machines was being moved on a flat bed truck from Michigan into Canada. The truck driver did not make the proper calculations from the imperial to metric measurement system and he proceeded to clip off the crank shaft of this huge mechanical press. It cost the trucking companies insurance a whole bunch of dollars but more importantly it upset the purchaser of the machine who then had to wait months longer to finally receive the machine they had already paid a pretty penny for. :-(

      They are all over the country. The North seems to have the most, as many of them are for elevated trains built decades ago. I had a pickup at a potato chip factory in Chicago . It had three undersized El train bridges, and only one that was 12'6" plus. I had a code book that told me which one. The one I had to use was only tall enough by about 1 1/2 inches. The disgusting thing was the potato chip factory had a flag that stuck up high enough to get your attention, but you could not get to it , except by one route. I picked up a load of Jalapeno chips right when that taste was new. I hauled them to south Texas. The smell was so strong in the trailer , it would burn your eyes. It was coming through the packaging, for Pete's sake. They gave me a bag at the factory, My sister lived in Austin, Texas. I gave them to her , and watched the tears stream down her face , as she and the boyfriend tried to convince me how good they were. ?? Sure.

      @@Vulpine407 I live in Forest Hills, Queens, and the LIRR overpass is only 10 feet 8. I've never actually seen someone hit it, but according to my parents, there was one time. Hell, a lot of bridges here are like that, especially on all the parkways. I don't think I've seen a bridge on the Grand Central Parkway over 12 feet.

    I like the way the lights & sigg are all back to normal by the time the poor sap backs out, leaving him/her with *no clue* that there had been fulsome warnings !! Great Stuff.

    My head scratch impression is of the OTHER driver's. Even without the crash, those little mini Vans are less than a car length behind a truck that blocks virtually 100% of the mini van driver's forward vision of traffic. They're glued to the butt end of a tall, wide truck. And rental trucks. Might very often be non experienced truck drivers, renting a truck to move, just got a job delivering appliances etc. Who drives with that kind of lack of awareness. Thanks - Lumpy

      Good point. I'm rather surprised that there are not (apparently) any rear-end collisions with trucks that hit the can-opener. Sure have been a few close calls though, both in this video and others.

      After more than 35 years of driving trucks, you'd be surprised at he number of morons who tailgate.

      Sadly, most people drive with little awareness of surroundings.

    Since adding signs, warning lights, red lights activated by overheight vehicles, etc. don't seem to work, maybe they should have a retractable curtain that lowers when an overheight vehicle is detected. If you can't see all those warnings, maybe you can see a curtain completely blocking the lane.

    The locals call it “The Can Opener”. I prefer it as “Satan’s Underpass”.
