You wouldn't believe how many times we have seen this! We even had a customer who forgot he was towing his little Jay Feather 165 and went through the McDonalds drive thru....ouch. Fortunately no damage to the roof, just the air. He was so embarassed that once we fixed it he actually traded it to us for a Jayco Melbourne Class C MH. Told me he wouldn't forget again.

Personally I feel that guy is too stupid to own an RV... there are just too many out there that do not pay attention to the driving...

The picture says it all, right down to the clearly visible 8' clearance sign. That is one LOW bridge.

Wow! I feel for both guys, but it makes ya kinda wonder especially with the guy and the 8' bridge. Maybe it's time for him to retire to a stick-n-brick

In light of the recent thread on road signs and the results of not seeing them, check out posts 1 and 2 of this thread.

I think the 8' sign really adds flavor to the moment in post 2.

.... the sign was definitely a "heads-up" moment

Remember the video with the 5th wheel taking out the gas station roof over the pumps...., another classic.
