Another too-tall truck hits bridge over I-40

I think I need a WTF / Stupid People category.. What a dumbass! What do you get when you try to pass a 15-foot, 9-inch tractor-trailer under a bridge with a posted 14-foot clearance? A least $100,000 in damage and one of Nashville's main interstate arteries closed from 9:45 a.m. until about 2:30 p.m. Yesterday morning marked the eighth time since 1991 that the Demonbreun Street overpass above Interstate 40 had been hit by a tractor-trailer carrying an oversized load, said Kim Keelor, a spokeswoman for the Tennessee Department of Transportation. |
