Bridge chat: there's also the consideration of the water table when lowering a road. My city did that to a road that passes under a freeway and every June it floods due to being lower than the highest level the water table gets too.

I showed that to a coworker and she suggested the police confiscate his teeth and let him keep the hat.

http://www.pcgamer.com/vanilla-world-of-warcraft-project-elysium-has-been-dissolved/

Quick summary: some people really, really want to be able to be able to play the original launch version of World of Warcraft, and created their own unofficial/private servers for it (which is one of the big things the developer comes down hard on when they catch wind of it). A little while ago, one of the big private servers, Nostralius, got DMCA'd, and wound up transferring their character data over to another private server, Elysium.

...Today, Elysium revealed that one of their mods embezzled 2000 euros, and another one was engaged in selling in-game currency for real world money (the OTHER big thing the original developer cracks down on), so they're almost certainly shutting down.

Why don't the bridge people just install a swinging bar/chain curtain on the other side to the junction from the can opener, like every low height parking garage ever? It's got to be cheaper than maintaining the can opener and cleaning up all the truck bits.

Why don't people pay attention to the flashing signs, red stoplights, and explicit acknowledgements that all truck rental companies in the area force drivers to sign?

They've literally done everything short of a barrier that automatically springs up in front of overheight vehicles, and it's still happening.

They should put up a ramp in front of the bridge, so that it pops up and sends trucks OVER the tracks!

Because trucks that are turning at the intersection would also hit it.

The only harm that bridge causes is to idiots, the can-opener beam protects the bridge. It's a perfectly sustainable and good situation. If they're smart they also have massive fines and it's a net profit.

This reminds me of some podcast I listened to that explained the core stupidity of banning stuff like TMNT in some countries, specifically because of nunchucks. Have a kid spend five minutes on a nunchuck, and he'll learn not to use the things on his or her very own.
