[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 2878795, member: 29706"] It happens a lot more in the northeast where everything was made years ago and they can not really change much with all the houses and treehuggers around. The regular GPS systems have information about roads but not bridge clearance and the drivers are too cheap to buy one that has that information then end up taking out a bridge or destroying their load. That and drivers who take shortcuts and do not properly rig the equipment they are hauling for transport. Sadly that bridge was in better condition than the one that goes across the tracks in Guthrie (Highway 33). I don't think anything is going to hit it from underneath but many more earthquakes and the train tracks will be out of commision for a few months along with a major traffic snarl with everything routed through the middle of downtown.
