"More aware" or perfect?
Even if they are "more aware" then things like this will still happen, just less often. I don't expect "professional drivers" to be perfect.

Well the fact remains that he is significantly beyond the height limit. The largest vehicle I've seen go through there, the standard version of the Merc Sprinter van, is already ~2.35m, this is certainly a good bit more. You don't need to be 'perfect' to avoid simple things like "don't try to drive through bridges that are too low".

I mean I can understand people forgetting about stuff like bikes on their roof because it's not their normal setup, we all forget things - though sometimes it has more severe consequences. But professional drivers should theoretically be more aware... one would hope.
