June 5, 2007: Dumb truck

[Clodfobble]

When a too-tall vehicle enters the toll plaza, an electronic sensor is tripped, several stoplights are activated and police officers at the plaza use a loudspeaker to order the driver to stop.

Well that's pretty useful.

Mr. Coleman said trucks were turned back for exceeding the height limit about once a week.

Funny. You know people who think laws like "no right on red" or "no parking" don't apply to them but to think they are better than mathematical absolutes approaches a new realm of egocentricism (or, just plain stupidity.)

I was trying to get an old friend to study for his CDL, and I'm quite sure the manual covered this!
