When it comes to low clearance bridges and overpasses, I never cease to be amazed at how some professional truck drivers think they can outsmart them or squeeze underneath them anyway.  Some professional drivers have relied on GPS units to route them. In following the advice of the device (and not authoritative instructions), they have unwittingly set themselves up for failure. They may think, “But my GPS told me to go this way!” and proceed on without consulting their atlas, taking heed of warning signs or using common sense. Ka-bam! Ouch!

You’re a professional. You’re supposed to know well in advance of going under an overpass whether or not your truck has the clearance to do so safely.
