This trailer has become the latest victim of a low bridge this morning as onlookers express disbelief.
Onlookers marvelled at the driver’s attempt to get the car and a trailer under the bridge in Lower Downs Road in Raynes Park at about 11am this morning.
It is not the first time vehicles have become stuck under the bridge.

Firefighters have taped off the entrance and exit to the bridge while attempts are made to free the trailer, which appears to be rented.
Police are also there to help.
Shas Sheehan was driving past when she spotted the emergency services.
She said: “It is thoroughly wedged.
“There wasn’t any traffic but I am sure there will be.”
The driver was travelling from the Kingston Road side of the bridge towards Worple Road when the trailer he was pulling became stuck under the bridge.
Another onlooker, Kevin Whincup, said: “I don’t know how he had contemplated getting through there.
“It is a mangled mess.
“The back is all twisted.”
Mr Whincup said he had alerted British Transport Police, and was concerned about damage to the railway bridge.
Staff from Network Rail are believed to be at the bridge with the emergency services.
