Just a reminder. Watch your height!

[Jim Eh.]

A 4 inch overlay at a underpass was some bad planning we never done one that way we always milled the pavement and put it back to the original height, it probably would cost a lot less money to make a different sign though milling is not cheap that takes high $$$ equipment with high maintenance cost  

Unfortunately it was on a sharp(er) right-hander under a rail line overpass at the base in the middle of two bridges so milling probably would not be feasible. The undulating S curve would make seasoned Nürburgring drivers nervous.
I believe the "lazer level" technology was also a few years in the future. Shortly thereafter, the bridges and overpass were replaced.

If there isn't any traffic around me to keep an eye on, i check out the underside of the overpasses to see how many scrape marks there are or how many chunks of concrete are missing.....surprising sometimes how many of those have been hit.

I was driving on I95 here is Connecticut one day and was behind a lowboy rig carrying a huge excavator when all of a sudden my windshield was cover with oil. It turned out that as the rig was traveling the trailer had some bounce to it as he went under the overpass the trailer bounced up and he slammed the excavator boom against the I beams blowing out the hydraulic pistons on the boom sending fluid all over my windshield. He must have never felt it because he kept on trucking.

Hey cheap diesel 

      THREAD DRIFT ALERT!!!   Yeah,  Here in We-Never-Saw-A-Tax-That-We-Didn't-Love North Carolina, I just pumped a $2.39/gal tank in my TDI yesterday.  And the book says that my bus is right at 13' 6" so I drive with one eye looking upwards anyway.
