Re: More Warning Signs & Alarms Are Needed to Prevent Trucks From Slamming Into Low Train Overpasses

There seems to be an order of competent. Box trucks, then local drivers then OTR drivers. The former being the least competent.

While I was driving somewhere last week, my mind wandered to the thought that I don't really see the height sign in advance. I forget where this was, it was a lower bridge, and there's no sign until you're actually at the place with the bridge.
So what are you supposed to do? Reverse a quarter mile to get off that road?

Same issue with most on-ramps and directional signage. Most of it around the country actually sucks, or is plain missing.

Maybe some warning is more in order before we put up air raid sirens.
