Had the dubious honour of wrting off an LDV van a couple of years ago,it had one of those high fibreglass roof things which I forgot about as I drove under a low archway,took the rather roof off,the bloke I hired it from was not impressed.

Drove an LDV maxus not that long ago, absolutley hated it, it was pot luck of you got a gear and it only had 48k on the clock. Had an 08 reg transit GLX last year, that had everything quto lights, wipers, 6 cd changer, elec windows, ESP, heated front screen, was the 200BHP model with 6 speed that bloody flew what a brilliant van that was

I was once chased by a LDV400 on a dual carriage way, only lost it by out cornering it at the next roundabout

Had a new school LDV Sherpa minibus in 1992 to replace the old Bedford Cf . The Geog teacher took it to Penarth on a field trip-he used to park the CF in the old multi-story but didn't realise that the new (one day old) sherpa was nearly 2 feet higher. Smashed in the roof and got it totally jammed under the multi- story roof . Still take the p*** 17 years later.

That would have been scary.  Seen a few reports on the news over the years of buses and lorries that have hit bridges.  But not seen the actual accident filmed.

just found this on YT

Surely bridge designers ought to take a lesson from this and reshape  the leading edge under the bridge.  Then to shave money bus companys could drive them in as double deckers and out again as single deckers.
