    That bridge is famous.

    It has it's own web site.

    It has a YouTube channel.

    There are signs everywhere and most of the collisions are rentals where the drivers aren't cognizant of their height. That said, plenty of pros have killed their trailers there, too.

    When and if they rebuild that bridge at a reasonable height, the next trend in accidents there will be Rear End Collisions involving Trucks as the old,experienced drivers, unexpectedly slow down as they approach remembering that site.

    Not sure if that's the one that has a railroad running over it, if so there isn't much more height they can go. They would have to do like they do here and lower the road, or dip to gain height.

    I was reading an article about this on the page that was posted. It is a railroad bridge. Cant go up with it without raising the surrounding RR crossings on the upper side. Cant go down because there are already a bunch of utilities buried under the road.
