  • Maybe the driver was a bit foggy about the meaning of the 11' 8" clearance sign, or the significance of the "OVERHEIGHT - MUST TURN" flashing signal? I don't know, but he floored it and hit the bridge with his rental truck this morning.

      This is a "payday" for penske because their contact/ insurance does not cover overhead cashes, so the customer has to pay for damage and maybe lost rental wages during repair out of pocket. So I'm sure penske is getting the last laugh.

      I went to their website. *There's no way to find out the truck clearance heights on the Penske website.* They'll tell you the internal storage capacity, but not what @#$%ing bridges it'll get stuck under. It's like they actually WANT such accidents to occur, because they sure avoid giving potential customers the information they'd need to avoid them.
      Supposedly the contract you sign tells you that you're responsible for any overheight collisions, but having seen how assiduously the website avoids telling you this information, I suspect the contract is also suspiciously void of what the height limit is for the particular vehicle you're renting.

    • @TruFalco
      @TruFalco 6 років тому +116

      Lon.TV they do and normally they run the light. The light is programmed to turn the light red when it detects an overheight car so the driver has plenty of time to decide whether to tempt fate or turn and not be a dumb ass. It didn't turn red when he pulled up immediately because he was 5 cars down and it already turned red, so he had plenty of time to react.

      It already turns red, stays red extra long, and turns the sign on, but I agree that "OVERHEIGHT MUST TURN" is vague and could be ignored by someone who doesn't realize that their truck is overheight for that bridge, especially since the reason this bridge is famous is that it catches trucks that aren't overheight for most other bridges.
      Something like "YOU ARE OVERHEIGHT AND MUST TURN" might help. Or a plastic bar hanging on chains before the canopener, so that they non-destructively hit it and realize that they will definitely hit the bridge.

    Relating to the comments about lowering the roadway, besides the underground utilities, the cost would be borne by the city. N/S St Gregson St is a local roadway. However, it certainly can be done. It's a question of money and who has it and the possibility of who wants to sacrifice their property (no one does unless they can make a lot of money from it).
    AZ lowered Grand Ave at Glendale Ave through Glendale AZ by about 30 feet. This reduced traffic congestion when a train came through the 6-point intersection. It is now a 4-point intersection.

      I'd imagine that if they weren't wearing their seat belts, they would be launched headfirst into the top of the cab and be killed. We still need a camera on the other side showing the driver during that Oh Shit! moment.
