you can't fix stupid, but you can attach a laser detection system to alert truckers the bridge is a can opener




Instead of the cost of rolling a tow truck, fire dept, EMS, and police every time some idiot ignores the height limit sign, and the obvious low damn overpass they can't fit under, the city of Wichita is installing a laser sensor that will kick up a 2nd line of warning signs to alert the idiot over 12 foot high that the bridge isn't 12 foot high.

Roughly 2wice a year since the year 2000 a new and different idiot has peeled off the top of his truck or rental delivery van 23 different times

4 ton limit 136 year old bridge, was just asking for it, apparently


4-ton weight limit historic bridge in Greene County.

The tanker truck owned by Bucccaneer Enterprises of Buckhannon, W.Va., partially fell through the 136-year-old Pollocks Mills Bridge Sunday night.

The driver, identified as Jason Wayne Strawderman, 38, of Beverly, W.Va., told police he didn’t see a weight limit when his GPS led him across the bridge

thieves stole a Granite City police officer’s unmarked squad car in St Louis


It came equipped with a badge, gun, bulletproof vest, and radio. Everuthing needed to be a better cop than the one that is now riding a desk in shame.

Oh, and now you know that cops can't do their job in a regular cop car, why else do they need to be camouflaged to blend in with traffic?

It must be hard to be effective when you're that hampered by the reputation St Louis cops have earned by being unprofessional and terrible at their jobs, They can't deny it in light of the evidence (When your police car is stolen from you, it's time to be very ashamed)

inexperienced and uneducated 23 year old takes a 30 ton semi onto a 6 ton limit 130 year old bridge, on Christmas day. It folds like a wet towel



There are a few things to be noted here that happened before the calamity with the bridge went down. The first was a wrong turn which started a series of bad decisions that inexperienced drivers make. Following the wrong turn there were attempts to get the truck going in the right direction and those all failed. Instead of stopping and coming up with a plan, Lambright just kept digging a deeper and deeper hole. Should we mention that her 17-year old cousin was with her in the truck? We’re not sure that matters other than to mention there was a person who could have jumped out, stopped traffic, etc.

She (the driver) has only had a CDL for 7 months. When the semi entered the bridge, the trailer immediately began ripping open due to the trailer was taller than the top of the bridge. As the vehicle continued the weight of the vehicle caused the bridge to collapse.

well then, Jake brakes it is! When you don't know shit, but make laws anyway, you oughta suffer public humiliation for your behavior

Lawmaker to state troopers: 'silly for a state rep to get a ticket' (Representative Cecil Brockman (D-Guilford) on November 30 for failing to wear his seat belt)


“[He’s saying] he’s a state representative from this area and he doesn’t appreciate the way he’s been talked to and treated,” the second trooper responded.

According to the conversation between the two troopers, Brockman also questioned why it took three officers to conduct the traffic stop.

“Well, he wouldn’t stop,” Allred said. “That’s what I told him. Whenever someone doesn’t stop, we’re going to be out here checking on each other. It’s about officer safety,” the second trooper responded.

When Allred finally returned to the car with a citation for the seatbelt violation, Brockman made it clear he was displeased.

Morons. Lower Michigan morons. The Michigan Dept of Transportation studied the problem, decided the cable barriers are the problem, not the stupid drivers, in the 194 vehicle pileup in a blizzard



Michigan officials have released a 94-page report that puts some of the blame for the 193 vehicle pileup on I-94 last January on cable barriers.

The pileup, which killed a Canadian truck driver and injured 18 others, involved a fireworks truck and a formic acid tanker. The report named the portion of I-94 where the pileup occurred the most dangerous highway in the state.

According to the report, the cable barriers constrained the flow of traffic after the pileup began and caused more vehicles to become involved in the crash.
