While up in N.Falls 6-20-11 Wife & I saw a Class A RV Backing up off the ramp ( wife was out trying to flag down traffice ) after crossing over the river into N.Falls . I 190 & R.Moses PKwy , we saw sign 11.9 clearance (I think it was 11.9 or 11.4). Other than the tunnels on the blue ridge Parkway this is the first time I have noticed this to be a problem , for some reason I was thinking that the min height of road clearance was 13.7 on American roads but I see now I was miss informed, we have a C class but are going to up grade to A class at some point and time. Is this a problem or more of an isolated case , this was our first trip there but I don't recall seeing any warning signs or alt rt but then again I was glued to the GPS / Map (we had already been lost and drove 300+ miles out of our way , ) backing up on that ramp was not safe by no means not to mention speeders , normal traffic,the heat and finding the ALT Rt , I know there is a ALT RT to many Buses /RVs across the Rainbow bridge , if we were to go back I would use the KOA and drive a tow the rest of the way , But I have to ask do any of you find low bridges a hassle as you travel USA. Would it be a waste of time to write the NY DMV . Were planing a trip down to Fla Pan Handle and over to N Orleans later , how many bridges will I have to dodge or air units to replace ;D before returning back to N.C. Our trip was great (Pricey) 1677 miles Lancaster Pa. - N.Falls - Morgantown WV- Home NC
