If you don’t measure well, you can mess it up with a camper or caravan

Most drivers only drive cars, which means driving more or less standard-sized vehicles that, a priori, fit anywhere. However, things change when we move to larger segments, such as vans, large campers or caravans.

With these vehicles it is necessary to take extreme precautions, because the maneuvers are somewhat more complicated, in addition to being attentive because in certain places, such as bridges, they do not directly fit.

This is precisely what happened to the protagonist of the video:

Camper trailer loses equipment at the 11foot8+8 bridge

The truth is that the area could not be better signposted, with a huge flashing light sign that reads “[los vehículos con] above height they must turn”, to which are added two signs on the sides of the road that indicate the maximum height that this passage admits: 12 feet and four inches, that is, 3.75 meters.

Despite this, the intrepid driver thinks “I’m going through there”, but he is wrong, and the result is that the bridge shaves all the equipment that was mounted on the roof of the caravan.

The funny thing is that it is a regular conflict zone, as it shows that this is the 175th accident that has taken place since the youtube channel, with the camera pointing at the bridge, was opened in 2008. What’s more, the height of the bridge is has risen, since at first it was 11 feet and 8 inches, that is, about 3.6 meters.

The bridge is famous and even has its own Wikipedia page, as well as a most appropriate nickname: the can opener. It is not even painted because it has mowed a large number of roofs of high vehicles that should not have tried to pass through it.
