This railroad bridge in Worcester has been hit 20 times just this year by trucks too tall to fit under it! City officials will shortly petition the state legislature to pass an act that would penalize those who hit a bridge whose height is clearly marked with a $5,000 fine plus the cost of the city's emergency response. Police believe the main reason is that out-of-town truck drivers put too much trust in their GPS systems and ignore the signs posting bridge heights.
