Our Jayco TT was only 11.5' tall, and I never worried about it.
I never "worry" about bridges. But I am always aware of bridges. Seen plenty of them that would be too low for any travel trailer, but always in locations I wouldn't be pulling one anyway.
Just pay attention and you'll be okay. Anything less than 14' will be clearly marked.
And definitely measure the rig yourself. Don't believe any literature. Then, so I don't forget how tall I am, I made these labels for the fiver. They are always visible in my mirrors and keep the limits in my head.
A+ on originality! Great idea.
