So what I'm getting from some of those drivers is that if you slow down first then the clearance might magically change?
It did magically change. They now fit exactly under the bridge, and not one of those drivers is going to admit it was their driving.
My theory is the higher rotation of the tyres makes centrifugal forces throw the rubber outwards, making them rounder and thus taller, so going slowly should give you perhaps an inch which could make all the difference.
If you study this slow-mo footage of a dragster wheel, you'll notice once the friction vs turning force has equalised the wheels is noticeably rounder than when at a standstill:
When can I drink beer?!! Why am I in a place that alcohol is illegal?!
As a professional driver, let me tell you the correct method is to let the air out of your seat so the truck lowers and allows you to pass.
To bad, they modified the bridge so no more truck openings.
I don't know whats going on. But I like it.
I think.
