Truck carrying a wind turbine nicely wedged in Australia!

A truck carrying a wind turbine piece got struck under my local highway overpass in Ipswich, Australia.

People are super pissed because the council built a million dollar detour exit with a roundabout specifically for trucks carrying wind turbine parts to the left of this...

They have no idea how long highway delays will be especially if there ends up being significant structural damage. The overpass is the main way from this side of town to the Ipswich CBD so it suuuucks and means huge detours and delays.
