In Belgium the maximum height for a vehicle is 4m (on all roads, whether there is a bridge or not). So without sign a bridge should allow vehicles under the maximum height to pass. There are exceptions, which requires a special permit (pubic transport). Then the maximum height is 4.4m meters. I assume that for exceptional goods, which also requires special permission, the height can be even higher.
This is part of the traffic code, which each citizen with a driving license should know. Will this be so much different in other countries ? Thus the tagging should indicate that without sign, the bridge allows at least vehicles with a height less than the legal maximum for vehicles in that country. regards m On Wed, Oct 29, 2014 at 2:05 PM, Martin Koppenhoefer <dieterdre...@gmail.com > wrote: > > 2014-10-29 14:01 GMT+01:00 Tom Pfeifer <t.pfei...@computer.org>: > >> Then it happens that a 3 m bridge that for some reason has no sign gets a >> 4 m tag. > > > > > examples?
