Brexit and the waning days of the United Kingdom

[mongers]

What is so hard to understand that makes some idoitic lorry drivers think they can get a tall HGV under it?

Upshot thousands of other people, including me* couldn't get in and out of South Wales or Bristol, today. 

How fun.  I almost got stuck in downtown Mobile, Alabama once because an accident closed the nice, large tunnel under the ship channel into the port of Mobile on Interstate 10.  There's a much older, much smaller alternate tunnel just to the north, and I went for that one; I was already cutting through downtown Mobile anyway.  Some dumbass tried to use it in his giant RV and got wedged in.  That tunnel has a lot more warning about the height restriction than this bridge, including a warning light/alarm system that he definitely triggered.  I was behind him, but fortunately close enough that the police routed me through the tunnel in the opposing lane in order to clear out the area.  All the people behind me were screwed, though.

Yep, you can't legislate for people's stupidity, and which despite the news, is fairly evenly spread across the world.
