Kansas recorded 377 vehicle strikes to bridges in 2025 – more than one every day of the year.To help raise awareness on the dangers of bridge strikes, the Kansas Department of Transportation is joining the Check Your Height, Know It’s Right national safety campaign. The initiative is directed at reminding drivers to check vehicle and bridge heights on planned routes and lower truck beds or trailered equipment while traveling. In addition to semitruck and commercial vehicle drivers, those driving rental/delivery box trucks, recreational vehicles and construction vehicles, or pulling livestock/equipment trailers have the potential of overhead collisions.
