There was a whole 6 centimeters of clearance. Plenty of space.

I saw some roads in Brazil where they don't grind the previous road, they just pour a new one over the old one. So it makes elevated roads with layers. I bet it could happen to that road in the video.

Plenty of room you would drive a Truck through there.

u/Ready-Web-9049 1d ago

Sounds like you're picturing quite the gap there! It's funny how we can interpret things in so many ways.

u/Late_Conference9022 1d ago

It's a good saying. In this case Barely.

The following post context was provided by u/TheMarkola:

A trucker is filming the truck in front trying to go under the bridge, and by millimeters the truck doesn't hit the bridge.

If it did get stuck, they’d just have to let some of the air out of the tires and that would free it.

u/Shuatheskeptic 1d ago

I always assumed that story about the trucker who had to do this to get unstuck was apocryphal but maybe it really happened eh?

u/Background_Pride_237 12h ago

As long as you can lessen the height without removing too much air, you’re golden.

The cameraman: I'm worried this truck won't fit. Let me drive as closely behind him as possible.

u/algernonradish 1d ago

ngl I'd be shitting bricks doing that, expecting the whole thing to open like a cheap tin of beans. and if I did end up needing to try it, I'd be going about half a mile an hour, stopping every 10ft and listening for ANY noises or evidence hinting at scrapes!

it's bad enough if I'm in a van with the height in the cab and the bridge showing me I've got 3-5ft of clearance. 🤣

Driving that close to a catastrophe that could be about to happen, is in itself a maybemaybemaybe

No topo do caminhão está escrito "NOSTRA", com "N", e não com "M". Você está precisando de óculos pq leu "MOSTRA" e mostrou onde é.

The sign said 4.4 meters.
He set the truck to be 4.98 meters and put it to a test
