Thread: Worlds toughest bridge

That reminded me of a funny incident some time ago, Was working at a place that had apart from what I was there for a mob that fitted and repaired those hydraulic truck cranes that fit behind the cab. One time a truck came into the work shop with one that had been speared through the tray. Apparently they had left the crane extended along the tray. Interesting I thought. Then I was told this was the second truck that was sent to replace the first truck that had done exactly the same thing going under the same bridge

There's hours of footage of the same thing happening at that bridge, on the tube. The guy who puts them up has a website dedicated to it, he lives close by.

and you thought you had trouble with your Defender in car parks....

Worlds Toughest Bridge

ha ha, got a few bridges over around Corinda, Sherwood way that have claimed plenty trucks and busses.
Last one I saw was full of insulation that gets sprayed into the ceiling, stuff was everywhere.

guilty as charged,
on my first truck driving job I pulled into a servo and , pop....pop....pop ... took out all their fluro lights

There is a sign there telling drivers what the clearance is, can't these people read. Surely as a heavy vehicle driver they must know the height of their vehicle!!

Ian, Didn't you ever try on the rail bridge at Muswellbrook for size? Or the rail bridges at Ipswich Road and O'Keefe St. Wooloongabba and Logan Rd. Buranda.
