Rig tools · a real Texas example

Pathfinder catches this

Cross Plains to Coleman on TX 206 in a rig 13 ft 7 in tall. At mile 27.5, North Neches Street runs under a railroad.

Your rig won’t fit at mile 27.5, North Neches Street. Posted clearance 13 ft 0 in (TxDMV Brownwood District) / 13′2″ (OpenStreetMap), using 13 ft 0 in. Your rig: 13 ft 7 in.

Rerouted around 1 posted limit your rig is over. Was 28.2 miles, now 30 miles.

From the Atlas route planner. Sources: the TxDMV Brownwood District low-clearance list (“13′ under a railroad located 1/2 mile north of W.SH153 in Coleman”) and OpenStreetMap. An example, Texas only for now. Always obey posted signs.

The rig check that flags it comes with Trailblazer ($9). Rerouting around it and Bail out come with Pathfinder ($25).
