Foggy morning canopener truck crash at the 11foot8 bridge

They dont care as if it is like Australia the overhead damage you cause is not covered by insurance the person that hires truck has to pay for it out of their own pocket. Plus in some contracts it also makes the person hiring responsible for lost rental on truck as it is in being repaired so a cheap 1 day hire can end up being a huge bill

I went to their website. *There's no way to find out the truck clearance heights on the Penske website.* They'll tell you the internal storage capacity, but not what @#$%ing bridges it'll get stuck under. It's like they actually WANT such accidents to occur, because they sure avoid giving potential customers the information they'd need to avoid them. Supposedly the contract you sign tells you that you're responsible for any overheight collisions, but having seen how assiduously the website avoids telling you this information, I suspect the contract is also suspiciously void of what the height limit is for the particular vehicle you're renting.

I notice that the majority of the trucks are rental trucks. Are there rental places on that road that rent out these trucks. And if so, one thing that they should make a priority is to tell the renters not to go that way, or to tell them about that bridge. Because obviously they don't have enough sence to realize they can't make it under...or don't have enough knowledge of the truck they are driving.

[@chartle1]

The rental companies can be anywhere in the area even out of state but in reality 1,000s of rental trucks probably drive by here every day only a hand full a year get hair cut. Maybe the ones that don't hit the bridge are rented locally and are told about this bridge. But they can only go so far. There are probably quite a few of these low clearance areas that also get hit. They just don't have cameras on them 24/7 and a youtube channel. Its just better to follow all the signs that in and outside the truck giving you the clearance.

These ones with pedestrians all around always make me nervous when those big chunks of shrapnel go flying. As entertaining as this bridge is, I'm so happy it got raised! You don't see crashes this severe anymore

[@danburch9989]

Relating to the comments about lowering the roadway, besides the underground utilities, the cost would be borne by the city. N/S St Gregson St is a local roadway. However, it certainly can be done. It's a question of money and who has it and the possibility of who wants to sacrifice their property (no one does unless they can make a lot of money from it). AZ lowered Grand Ave at Glendale Ave through Glendale AZ by about 30 feet. This reduced traffic congestion when a train came through the 6-point intersection. It is now a 4-point intersection.

[@ChristopherUSSmith]

It's part of a federally funded business route, so the highway portion could be done with a big chunk paid by Washington, and the rail line portion by USDoT infrastructure improvement money.

[@ninline2000]

[@FurnitureFan]

@@ninline2000 That's never going to happen, though.

[@February54]

Every time somebody crashes into the bridge, all rail activity is halted while rail company sends people to inspect the bridge. That will mess up your morning commute good. This time there were railworkers nearby!

[@nathanielhiggerson7679]

February I’m sure Penske is liable for that bill, yikes.

[@ChrisVallesXxXthejoker505]

I'd volunteer to sit there day-to-day just to watch it go down.

[@Renville80]

February that’s probably why the railroad installed that crash beam in front of the bridge. Reduces the chance of damage to the bridge.

[@February54]

If a crash is severe enough, a truck can go past the beam and clip the bridge. So the rail company has to come inspect it every time.

[@danburch9989]

Mist likely the driver of the rental truck pays all the bills. There's a line item in the rental contract that assigns all risk to the renter.

[@ozricus]

2:00 - "Whoo...that'll wake you up!"

I like how that guy just kept walking like nothing happened even as shit was flying towards him.

[@Nist12]

[@EstorilEm]

Is there a billboard advertising truck box repairs nearby? There’s gotta be a specialty shop nearby 😂

[@kevinthetruckdriver353]

That truck is for parts now. Too expensive to fix the box. Unless Penske has a broken down truck with a good box. Even the rear sides were bent on the box.

[@cmanlovespancakes]

The driver will pay for the replacement of the box out of pocket since the renter insurance doesn't cover the roof of the box.

[@daniellaubach7544]

I would think so! If these knot headed box drivers keep on feedin the can opener. It'll continue! That will be one very big repair to tackle!

[@mccflo99]

I love how you can hear all 7,200 pieces of exotic China shattering into 37 billion shards of shrapnel after impact. The only way these videos could get any better is if you had the reactions of the employers/rental truck companies as the double-dips who blasted them into the crash beam, dropped them off for return...

[@NaoPb]

Yes, we should set up cameras in the rental shops so we can see the reactions. Too bad they probably wouldn't allow it.

[@sdfjsdlkfFJKLASD]

Mount a camera under the bridge aimed at the driver would be so awesome.

[@NaoPb]

Love the idea Mick

[@jeffrutan8521]

three people just claimed first. I don't know about that but I love the way the front of these trucks always jump up. imagine the person driving it's got to be just shiting bricks

[@jeffrutan8521]

[@merlinmagnus873]

I'd imagine that if they weren't wearing their seat belts, they would be launched headfirst into the top of the cab and be killed. We still need a camera on the other side showing the driver during that Oh Shit! moment.

The flashing sign that says over-height assumes that those drivers can read
