A Tow Truck Entered a Gas Station, and the Gas Station Got Hurt First
An Accidental "Dented Design"
A tow truck pulling a container truck drove into a gas station, but it was too tall and directly dented the ceiling.
This isn't a movie special effect, nor is it a driving simulation game, but a real scene that can happen in the daily life of a tow truck operator. Looking at the picture, the top of the container truck literally gave the gas station's canopy a "dented design." Fortunately, it didn't bring down the whole structure, otherwise, the scene might have turned from a gas station into a "demolition site."
Towing a tall container truck into a height-restricted space, just 10 more centimeters can mean one more hole. This situation reminds us that judgment during towing really needs to be very cautious.
📣 A Professional Reminder for Peers
This incident gives us an important reminder:
When towing, the vehicle not only gets longer, it also gets taller!
Whether entering a gas station, an underpass, or a parking garage, please be sure to "look up" at the height restriction signs before driving in. An extra second of confirmation can save a huge amount in repair costs. Don't let the cost of repairing the canopy exceed the cost of a full tank of gas 💸.

This tank of gas might really be the most expensive one this driver has ever filled up. ⛽💥
