The ditch here is not unusually deep or wide here, and I think that an average person in decent shape should be able to hop across with little trouble. Even if the ditch is a little difficult to hop here, it's even smaller a few yards up the road. Still, this culvert has been installed recently to provide access from the road.
Never mind that this culvert is as tall as it wide, or that there's probably a field access culvert within easy walking distance. The great thing about this is the way it was installed. According to a reliable source this was put in using a backhoe!
Time to go back to the sandbox for a little remedial training.

I'm no engineer, nor do I play one on TV, but that is just plain pathetic...

I think it's an engineering marvel, but not necessarily in the good way.
It rivals the storm drain on the sidewalk. http://truebluesam.blogspot.com/2008/09/labor-day-weekend-review.html
At least the culvert did not involve a federal grant..I hope.
But now the lineman's job can be handled by someone requiring wheelchair access!
Only if the wheelchair has big knobby tires and a lift kit.
How many Vietcong sappers can hide inside? ;-)
That looks more dangerous than the ditch itself. Maybe Jimmy Hoffa is buried there and it's all a clever disguise?
