Drive on Motorway.
Open Tipper.
Driver under bridge.

looks like he was driving with the tipper part in the up position

**The Lone Gunman** · 22 February 2007, 14:07

So is that just the tipper part then?

Now I see it, didn't look properly first time.

Probably found that his truck was suddenly a lot quicker and thought "why stop now?"

It's not off a tipper truck is it?

It's one of those skip like things (only much bigger than a skip) that get hauled on & off the truck body.

don't think thats the case, look closely and there seems to be integrated guards to go round the wheels on it.

and click on the enlarge image link
text reads: The rear of the tipper truck became wedged under the overhead gantry on the motorway
