“I guess they’re applying to Chohan Freight Forwarders,” commented one user.
“Glad he was tall enough to hit the opening so he didn’t have a chance to go in and bust a water pipe or gas line,” added another user.
One user is thankful this latest incident didn’t involve an overpass.
“At least it’s not an overpass. Progress I guess,” commented one Reddit user.
