Had pedestrians, cyclists or motorists been on the other side of the road, people could have been killed at Amiens St this lunchtime.

Woah! That was a stroke of luck that nobody was hurt. Someone did not complete their checklist for height restrictions after loading the cargo. That company will be fined.
Just seen this on Digg. It’s good.

Digg in 2019?
Have some great long form these days.
the fines should be big enough that no truck driver will ever turn the key in their vehicle without knowing their height and their route.

Is that the same bridge that was hit a coupe of weeks ago?
Only weeks after this:

All HGV drivers are obliged to heed their height and weight when planning their route.
How would anyone be hurt? The dozer stayed on the road the all time… anyway, another careless driver on road… whats new.
I think they mean if someone was on the road, they could have been killed.
ah, they would have been killed regardless then as car usually drive on the road. Nonsense.
It’s probably wise to write a legible post when accusing someone else of nonsense.
No.
Incomprehensible gibberish or DEATH
Jeffrey seems nice.
The obvious solution to this is to construct a ‘goalpost ‘ barrier 200 meters or so each side of the bridge – one that doesn’t break (flexible) but emits a loud warning if it is hit.
Guaranteed to get complaints about it being ugly etc… but its done in Longford at least and I assume other places too.
Surely in 2019 we could use sensors with flashing lights on the bridge instead of goalpost barriers?
