What moron drives under a 9'6" bridge? 13'4" or something I can maybe understand (sort of) but 9'6"?! That's only a foot and a half taller than the ceilings in the average house.

I hope they tested this guy for drugs.

hate to point it out but ONLY ONE all the pic's and the news article http://www.fosters.com/apps/pbcs.dll...RS01/106300399 are of the SAME truck and trailer just that the news pic was taken after the truck was moved... also the news article lied (realy) as you can see in FOZZY'S pic's the driver DIDN'T drive off not knowing he lost his trailer.....?

No, you are wrong on that Useless. That is Spencerian on his first day with his first trainee.
Yeah but what I want to know is who was driving Spencerian or the trainee?
