Strangely enough, I nearly had a similar experience once. I was helping my sister & brother-in-law move from Philly back to Long Island, I was in the moving truck that we rented (it was the biggest one they had, like 13’ or so). After like 4 hours in traffic, we were just over the Verrazano and onto the BQE, when I noticed a sign that said “last exit, trucks over 12’8” exit here”. My brother-in-law didn’t see it, so if I hadn’t…

Can you imagine, all your stuff is in one truck, and you pull the can-opener trick? Man that would suck.
