Watch for this bridge in North Carolina

Not really the "toughest bridge" as described in the opening scenes. There is a steel "A-Frme" installed in front of the bridge to protect the bridge itself. After numerous collisions someone cam up with the idea for the slicer.

Last one was a Laredo. Told DH to turn once and came upon something similar. Good thing he can do a 3 point turn.

What's scary about that video clip is that many times were are so preoccupied with road or making sure we're headed in the right direction, that we don't pay attention to the height signs. WOW

I am working on learning to say the height of each bridge (that I see) out load. That way it will be kinda like nature that I will be able to catch one that is less than I need. Not sure if it will work but at least its a start.

We downloaded low bridge poi to our Garmin and have it signal us within 2 miles of a low clearance. Gets confused once in a while when we are on the overpass of a low bridge but that is better than no warning at all.
