It's happened to you before. You've been in a car and a truck has completely tried dominating the road, causing your heart to palpitate and palms to sweat. Or maybe it was two trucks, sandwiching you on the highway or blocking the road ahead by driving at the same speed and preventing anybody from passing. Many times, you just wish they had their own roads, right? Well, we've found some instances when the truckers probably wish they had their own roads, too.

There is a bridge in Durham, N.C., between Gregson and Peabody streets, that has the reputation of crippling trucks with it's 11-foot-8-inch clearance. Its "can opener" effect leaves truck drivers befuddled and usually without a roof over their heads. This bridge is the most prominent, and the strongest, but there are others around the world that create the same issue. Here are 15 GIFs of Semi Trucks Crashing Into Low Bridges.
