FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. YOU ARE ALL PLAYING RIGHT INTO ITS HANDS. STOP.
The vicious and apparently insatiable Montague Street Bridge has an apparent oversupply of food these days, courtesy of reckless idiots all keen to play chicken with the maw of the beast.
It got so bad that the Government stepped in and placed warning paddles on either side of the bridge; paddles that, when struck by the top of your vehicle, alerted you to the fact that your vehicle is too tall and will not fit under the bridge.
They’re not “if you brush them slightly you might still be ok to have a crack” paddles. They are “you hit these and therefore you are going to hit the bridge that is absolutely going to happen” paddles. No excuses.
And yet time and time and time and time a-bloody-gain we see people foolishly flaunting their own imminent fate right in the face of the terrible beast.
Look! It happened again EARLIER TODAY.

DO YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY? IS THIS A GAME TO YOU? YOUR LIFE IS AT STAKE HERE. THE BRIDGE WILL EAT YOU.
This latest victim, a light truck, fell afoul of the rabid terror at around 11am Thursday morning. The monstrous bridge held it firmly in its gaping jaw for around an hour, menacing and taunting those who were present to witness, in a bloody display of might.
The truck was only freed after the brave souls entrusted by the monster enough to approach it closely managed to release air from the truck’s tyres and tug it free.
Meanwhile, if the beast ye wish to flee, STOP DRIVING STRAIGHT INTO IT YOU DUM DUMS.
