It's known as "storrowing" for Storrow Drive's many treacherously low overpasses.

A box truck innocently enters Storrow Drive — maybe students renting a U-Haul or a delivery from out of town — and doesn’t take heed of the signs noting a 10-foot height limit. Before they know it, the top is shorn off the truck or they’re stuck under a bridge with traffic backing up behind them.

Boston’s Storrow Drive is now infamous for a certain kind of accident; specifically, the truck-to-bridge collision. In fact, the phenomenon of trucks hitting the underside of a bridge on the parkway has become so iconic that the term “Storrowed” now loosely applies to any truck-hitting-bridge incident around New England.
