Big Truck + Small Space = Big Problem

We need one of two things: smaller trucks or larger overpasses.

At least, that seems to be the case in Chatham Borough, where too-tall trucks seem to have a habit of trying to squeeze through too-small spaces—one in particular.

Chatham Borough Police said this past week a truck suffered extensive damage . But that tidbit probably didn't feel like news to a lot of people in Chatham.

After all, back in mid-May, Chatham Patch ran a similar article: . And just a few weeks before that: That's right—trucks. Plural. In that story, two trucks had hit the overpass in 48 hours.

Someone had uprooted a mailbox from the ground, . What's more, someone had thrown a neighbor's mailbox as well, police said. That's a special delivery the street could have done without.
