In new york bridges are marked 1 foot lower than they really are. talk about crossing your fingers. lots of close calls. Just watch for a SWIFT or WERNER truck go under first 🤣

they measure from the hub of truck to top of bridge/tunnel :nuts:

i guess to compensate for snow and any additional height made for repairs on the roads.
