It was a warm Sunday afternoon and I was walking lazily to the carpark with 2 piles, preparing to give my car a good wash. As I was approaching the carpark, I was shocked by a serious of loud bangs. They were as loud as vehicle collisions. I didn

Actually it could also be a case of the height limiter adjusted to the wrong height. It happen to my friend below. He was driving his company van and tried to enter a MSCP. He slow edge to the limiter and his van clear without hitting the limiter...so he continued into the CP, go up the ramp and BAM!

 

He quickly reverse out to the entrance instead of continued on like your encounter (He's the boss so the van is technically his)

 

Wrote a complaint letter to towncouncil who reply they will follow up and check the height.

Sometimes, the height of the ramp is not taken into consideration. The contractor simply take the lowest height of the beam and use that as the height restrictor's height. Yes, it can be that stupid.

 

I have seen the rear passengers helping to push up the height restrictor (Those with chains at the bottom type) to clear their vehicle. Yes, it can be that stupid too.

Too much, really.  But one fun fact has stuck in my brain: All the other planets in the Solar System could fit between Earth and our Moon.  It seems crazy to think, consideri

    Tennis: Beautiful game that doesn't know how to count

    Wimbledon just concluded yesterday (congrats Sinner!), and it's a reminder of how much I enjoy tennis as a sport. I used to play it some (wasn't particularly good), and still tangentially follow it nowadays (the Roland Garros final this year between Alcaraz and Sinner is an all-time classic).  There's something intrinsically mesmerising about the sport, I think even for spectators who have never picked up a racquet. At first glance, it may seem like just two people (or four, but doubles is
