Objects in Mirror are Dumber than they Appear
Reminds me of a story -
These two guys get out of Truck Driving School and on their first run, they see a sign for a low bridge – 12 feet – 0 inches. They check the truck and the height is 13 feet 9 inches. They keep driving.
As they get closer to the bridge, they see another sign, “ low bridge – 12 feet – 0 inches”. They check the truck and the height is 13 feet 9 inches. They keep driving.
Finally as they get to the bridge, they stop, see the sign on the bridge, “12 feet – 0 inches”. They check the truck and the height is 13 feet 9 inches.
One driver says, “Waddaya think?”
The other says, “Well, there’s not a cop in sight, I say we go for it.”

FYI - observed at the 12' bridge near my house.
:-) Oops!
There was a truck with a backhoe on it in the town where I grew up that lost the backhoe to the bridge in a very similar situation. Last I knew, the bridge still had a dent in it.
