A bridge in Banbridge known as The Cut has taken another victim.

Despite a height restriction on the arch bridge, lorry and van drivers have still attempted to squeeze under it.

A white van man's lorry cab was nearly peeled back when he tried to drive under the 183 year-old bridge.

A photo of the damage, posted to social media by police, prompted a barrage of advice from followers on how to prevent further incidents!
