=13'2"

I think you meant 13'6"-4'(feet)=9'6"

He must have really been hammer down to get a 13'6" that far under 9'6" bridge. :shock: :shock:

The fireman can almost reach up and touch the bottom of the bridge. You would even need a clearance sign to figure this out.

No, you are wrong on that Useless. That is Spencerian on his first day with his first trainee.

Well, Karnajj!! I'm not going to call you wrong, but I AM trying to be nice to Spencerain!!

To a minor degree, I can sympathize with him; A Little!!

I do know what it is to transition from being the employer to being a bottom of the rung employee. I dealt with that when I decided to become a driver, and, believe it or not, I'm beginning to experience it again, as I am embarking upon a new career, although I will not have to hand the reigns of my companies over to someone else this time!!

It can be a challenge. Yet, as I began my time on the road, I accepted the fact that while I do have areas where I am well practiced, driving a big truck was not one of them!!

Bad things come in TWO! Its the TERRIBLE TWO!

The 2 worst accidents that bridge & its community has seen in 20 or 40 years and it happened twice in rapid succession.

Way. to. go.
