Class A Low Bridge Accident

I'm not sure our GPS had low bridge clearance in it. Co-pilot, on back roads and strange/new territory always s n the watch for signs and the overpasses themselves.
We encountered several in Indiana and other places. Missed signs a couple of times but overpasses are generally marked, In Ga and Tn some Civil War era underpasses, when buggies and wagons were the rule, slipped u on a couple. Saw from a distance we could not clear though. 'm not sure what will be our next Motor Home but on board GPS might not have low clearance over passes indicated, so considering a GPS for over the road truckers. Even then it is possible that some may not b indicated. Co-Pilot duty things to help watch for is lwo overpasses.

I had the Co-Pilot app and it is the worst GPS I have used. It sent me some a road in WV that would’ve been questionable in a minivan with a PuP. Twists and turns that rival raids in the Rockies! I’m usually pretty good at looking at the map beforehand but I missed that one!
Next year I’m getting a Garmin RV GPS. But you still need to watch the road!
