The “clankers” installed by the Delaware Department of Transportation in an attempt to stop the parade of damaged trucks at Newark’s Casho Mill Road (sometimes known as Crasho Mill underpass have been the source of much discussion (and memes)  on social media.

Some have scoffed at the ability of the bright orange balls to stop inattentive drivers.

The City of Newark recently released a video that showed the system worked – at least in one case when the clankers stopped a driver of a pickup truck pulling a boat that sat higher than the underpass.

The system is in place for move in time at the University of Delaware, a time when the underpass has been known to damage a few rental trucks.
