JAMMED AGAIN

It happened again! A tractor trailer stuck in the Midtown Tunnel. How can that occur more than once, or for that matter at all?

Were the personnel who control the tunnel traffic unaware of the dimensions of the tunnel? Were they unaware of the dimensions of the tractor trailer?

Were they unaware of the fact that these two dimensions are supposed to be compatible in order for one to pass through the other without calamity?

Were the traffic controllers there at all?
