The Stuck Truck Total Is Now Up To 9 / myLot

Like I mentioned in a prior post earlier this week, they have closed a major interstate here in Louisville, KY so vehicles are taking surface streets and side roads. There's one particular overpass/underpass that is called "the can opener" where trucks tend to get stuck despite all the signage and warnings about the clearance height of the overpass. As of midnight last night there have already been 9 trucks stuck in that one single overpass in the past 3 days. Truck drivers need to pay better attention or find better work-around routes.

The worst I every saw was a long truck jammed under an underpass and cut open on top like with a can opener, Took some time to recover it,

When my first husband trucked they were warned about the low overpasses when they were dispatched. Companies do not want their equipment damaged or to pay for damages to overpasses and such. I do not know why they are not seeking out better choices.

I have heard companies use special apps to show routes where there trucks fit under every bridge in that particular route. How hard is it for everyone to get access to that information? I mean, really.
