The Underpass

Posted in Puzzles by Greg Ross on February 20th, 2006

A large truck had become wedged under an underpass. The driver couldn't move it backward or forward, and traffic was beginning to back up behind it.

He was on the point of desperation when a little boy approached him and offered a suggestion. A few minutes later the truck was on its way. What did the boy tell the driver?

I'll give the answer tomorrow.
