If you haven't watched @11foot8plus8 videos, they're absolutely astounding. The city of Durham raised the bridge by 8 inches a while back and drivers STILL get their truck roofs shredded on a semi regular basis. Like how the fuck do you solve this problem without just banning cars?

This is a pet peeve of mine, I was so sad when they rose the bridge :(

For reference, the bridge is under the normal minimum legal height, but it has a railway on top and a sewer below so it can't be easily heightened.

Who doesn't love a classic Penske Peel in the morning, amirite?
