Is this 11' 8" in Durham, NC? Lol. Hilarious

Nope, this is the bridge by the train station on Mamaroneck Ave in Mamaroneck NY. I have seen quite a few trucks get peeled open there.

Looks like the bridge has a 10' 1" sign

You can even see the rust where the trucks get peeled. Awesome.

Close. Your ft & in symbols are backwards. It should be 10'-11"

There are no shortcuts. Only short bridges.

That the truck got peeled i believe, my doubts are whether the text on the side was edited in or not.
