According to the Department for Transport every day, on average, 10 vehicles crash into bridges too low for them, sometimes killing the driver.
Many drivers don't seem to know the height of their vehicle, although by law this should be written on a notice in the cab, which they can check to see if it's safe to go under a low bridge.
Even when an in-cab height indicator has been fitted, many drivers don't know what the device is about.
