in that case “driver complains high peak trail not high enough”

If this comp was a WINdow then you just swang (?)swung (?) swinged(?) through it like a yodeling Tarzan, with one arm on the vine and the other one easily carrying a clutch of curvaceous Conchitas against effortlessly-flexing pecs.

Doubt it. Try hitting a live train track/bridge FTW!

Edited to add:
1. Mercedes Sprinter impacted with a bridge. Cost of repairs totalled £2,937. The claim for disruption was £283,747.
2. A DAF 18T Tipper hit a bridge. Repairs totalled £6,542. The claim for disruption was £149,408.

Thing is the lorry was from a company probably less than half a mile away from the bridge, you would think they might know the height. Also I think the bridge is listed!

There is a railway bridge a couple of miles where I live and I've seen several lorries stuck under it. It's actually happened that much there is now a permanent matrix sign giving the height in feet and meters and yet still a couple of weeks ago a lorry was stuck under it with the police present and Railtrack inspecting the bridge.
