Low-bridge truck accident, Trowell, Notts

Another articulated lorry in a low-height bridge collision at Trowell, Notts. The samshed trailer spilt much of its load of Oral-B mouthwash onto the road, which since the accident has never smelt so fresh or been so tartar free!

 

The tractor unit had gone by the time I arrived, and the trailer (which looked fairly new) was hitched up to a recovery wagon, meanwhile, members of Notts County Council highways department and the Police cleared up the mess.

 

This is the third low-bridge strike I've seen in the fifteen months that I've been travelling through this part of Nottinghamshire.
