Was he good or bad?
Looks like he could have gotten through that
Hiya maybe he couldn’t get square on but it looks ok to me he’s between the markers.
the sign look odd, dose it say 10ft. it looks 14 ft at he markers. maybe the bridge is
lower at the other end. i posted yesterday how a bridge in Manchester looks to be 16ft but there,s a lower arch bridge half way under the higher bridge.

It’s a 12ft bridge going up hill so the entrance you see is higher than the exit the other side + the road is offset through the arch , it was never gonna make it half a mile back there is a sign that says no HGV turning past this point Now if ths guy didn’t speak English or very little he may of took that to say "your not allowed to turn your HGV around past this point … maybe we need to make our signage clearer … ie HGV’s over 12ft must Turn around Here and provide a turning point…
there is a sign that says no HGV turning past this point Now if ths guy didn’t speak English or very little he may of took that to say "your not allowed to turn your HGV around past this point
Or if he didnt speak English, he wouldnt have known what the sign said.
he had the sense to stop and did’nt rag it,well done.

Welcome to Devon!
We have the largest network of rural roads in the country so it’s not surprising that Grockles come to grief.
Cornwood is an absolute ■■■■■ to get to even if you know the way.
Must have been a slow news day
Why don’t foreign drivers have to have their height in feet and inches in their cabs like we do?
Working in metric, it’s possible that they don’t know how to convert our imperial into their more familiar terms.
Seems obvious, but no one gives a ■■■■ about enforcing something obvious…
