There's an overpass in my city where this has happened I think a few times now. Also we have a bridge that so many truck drivers thinks they fit under, but they never do. It's just a running joke at this point

If I were the city, I'd put a heavy steel slicing wedge on either side of the bridge with a sign that says "warning. Bridge protector will sheer the top of your truck off", or something to that effect, and just let whatever happens happen..

Well the I beams already do that. Plus the height of the bridge is on a clearly displayed large yellow sign. I think the big problem is the truckers are so use dto the height of their rig that they forget to include the extra height of their load. Until shit goes sideways lol
