Durham, North Carolina; Quite possibly the epicentre of stupid driving....

This railway overpass in Durham, North Carolina has been catching out truck drivers and caravan haulers for years. "Accidents" happen here almost on a weekly basis. This video features some of the best incidents since 2008. The bridge is so well known and documented for low clearance related crashes that Durham resident Jürgen Henn decided to mount a camera from his office overlooking the civil structure that's been dubbed "the can opener". After catching out a large number of stupid large vehicle operators, Henn then started a website (http://www.11foot8.com/) to document the footage for the whole world to see.

I got a great laugh out this, I hope you do as well...
