Low Bridges
Being ancient as I am, I still rely on the Trucker's Atlas publications - and use GPS as a backup. Good planning of your intended route is a game-saver. The trucker's atlas publications are well worth the price - all things considered. It took one instance of deflating tires to get a 10' 4" bus under a 10' 2" bridge on a back-road charter in 1957 to cure me of not planning for unfamiliar roads. Here is one of many helpful publications that can be of assistance for the "off-interstate" scenic roads.
