High Level Bridge

I was being facetious. Because honestly, the current signs aren't small, and they're bigger than the previous signs, which were also not small, so...how big do they have to be for drivers to actually notice them?
Good question, think of it like the optometrist's eye chart. I also wonder if they should be driving, but I guess we still need to keep making the letters bigger for them.
 
With modern technology height sensors could act as an early warning system whereby 150dB sound-directional sirens and loud commanding vocal cues could say something like "Hey Dumbass! your truck is about to get wedged into the bridge structure and you will be held personally responsible for all damages incurred by your unchecked stupidity!"
 
How close to zero is it that a new high level could get a little funding from the $51 billion allocated to build communities strong fund announced the other day? Saw bridges in it and have to think this would be one a city would hopefully lobby for as part of this as it is a big traffic pain point and probably more challenging than many other ones
