Interesting to see that failure to lower the dump body is not unique to North America.

Yikes, wonder if the truck driver was drunk or something  :-/

Interesting that the pickup just kept on driving. I guess they thought that the truck would clear the gantry.

That or they were hoping they could accelerate in front before the truck got there.

Well, that *was* a nice looking gantry. Uniform sign heights, with an external exit tab... Almost CalTrans without being CalTrans.
