Nothing to do with stupidity don’t be so bloody cheeky.
It was actually my Trucknet mate Truckyboy in 1964 doing a bit of Specialised haulage 1964 style (none of this strapping ■■■■■■■■ in those days)
In the pic he had just got out of the cab and said
‘‘Is this where you want this arch’’
Common sense doesn’t prevail here. However, is it not the case that any bridge under 16ft needs to be signed to advise of correct height ? …

A Sat Nav is a tool to do a job, it actually does it very well, a Sat Nav doesn’t drive the truck under the bridge or gets the truck stuck in a narrow lane, that’s the drivers job.
Wonder if it was Radar? He drives for that lot
“Oldest working Roman arch.”
So what does it do then? Hasn’t it just sat there for years?

You’d think it would have retired by now! No, it’s going to work until it drops.
Where are the height markers on the arch? If you watch the video there aren’t any on either side. Get out of jail free card for the driver.

Apparently the height is inscribed into the arch in Latin. Using the Roman method of measurement at the time it translates roughly to “one and a half centurions (wearing battle helmet)” Hope that helps.
