You can avoid mishaps like this so easily! Include a measuring tape in your Emergency Kit along with the spare wheel, fuses, lamp bulbs, foot-pump, tire levers, ring spanners, welding equipment, hoist, band-aid, vaseline, red triangle, bull horn, spare engine, tow-truck, thermos, sandwiches, tire chains, sleeping-bag, compass, ear defenders and so on which the thoughtful driver knows are indispensable for getting him out of tight corners. Tight corners are the bane of any motorist's life.
All this guy needed to do was measure the bridge before he tried to drive across it. But at least he had the foresight to bring some stripey tape and a policeman with him. Could have been nasty.

I welcome your comments, the gloomier the better. I don't think there's much hope, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in what you have to say. If you expect me to approve your comment before it appears, you're about to be disappointed. Never have understood why some hypersensitive bloggers need to see what others say before they allow the comment. Poor, sensitive wee souls.
