There have been bridge hits with those double decker transit buses, a fatal one around Syracuse. Could you imagine sitting upstairs in one and see a bridge coming at you!

I went to the Springfield mass greyhound station to pick up my kid. There is a 12' 7 ''bridge IN THE CENTER right before the bus station (ON Main ST). I stopped, got out,looked, didnt think my AC would make it, and backed up. Prob pissed off those behind me!!

I had to back a 53 foot semitrailer into a park to turn around from a 12 foot bridge in Calgary. I was 13'6". Pouring rain, dark and rush hour. I still have nightmares. And did I ever destroy that park escaping. Before cel phones and cameras fortunately.
