Ever wondered why commercial vehicles aren’t allowed on the Belt Parkway? This trucker found out just one of the reasons early this morning. His double-hitched truck slammed into the B/Q overpass around 1:30 a.m. At around that time, reader Vyacheslav M. was crossing over the footbridge. Camera in-hand, he snagged these photos, and wrote the following:

> An ESTES Express Lines truck was heading East on Belt park way and did not clear the height of the bridge (11′-4″) and the entire roof top was shaved off and some cargo fell out, the truck came to a stop next to the El Greco Sign. The only car involved in this accident is the truck no one else. The driver was in a lot of pain and was rushed to the hospital by FDNY Ambulance.
