Pay attention to the height restrictions of the next bridge you’re about to go under unless you want to lose the top part of your trailer.
One 11’8″ bridge on Gregson street in Durham, NC, has earned quite the notorious reputation due to the amount of trucks it destroys. It’s been appropriately labeled “The Can Opener Bridge”.
In fact, the bridge has taken so many victims that one man created an entire webpage and Youtube channel, called 11foot8.com, with videos showing off every victim the bridge has claimed since 2008.
Some of the videos are humorous, others will make you cringe. One thing’s for sure, the bridge is a good indicator that a lot of people aren’t aware while they’re driving. Maybe the roads should be lowered.
