CHECK YOUR HEIGHT, KNOW IT'S RIGHT

Bridge hits are dangerous and avoidable. KYTC joins a multi-state safety campaign urging truck, RV, and trailer drivers to know their vehicle height before traveling.

Measure vehicle, check door decal or owner’s manual for max height before traveling
If hauling equipment or livestock, check trailer and load height
Don’t rely on GPS; heed height warning signs before bridges and overpasses
Ensure dump truck beds are lowered, or tall equipment is stowed properly before entering highway

Kentucky has over 180 low-clearance bridges. Stay alert. Stay safe.
