I was sent to a private home a week or so ago with stone on for a guys drive way, I said to the man I can't tip here cos of the cable he said
don't worry I keep an eye on the box as it rises, He told me it was a phone line so i agreed to his request, but I missed the power line in frontbehind tree line that he forgot to mention till I heard him shout over the sound of the engine. You've never seen anyone act so quick, what a shock. but a lesson learned. Red

That is just how high a state will allow, not how high they are.
Noticed a few things wrong, Like, unless Calif changed it's law in the last 2 years, Motor homes could not be longer than 40 ft.... On that list it says 45 ft. Ya, I've seen some pushing 14 ft, but they were home built or custom built, but the norm factory built is 11+ ft to just under 13 ft

(B) A house car described in subparagraph (A) may be operated on a highway that provides reasonable access to facilities for purposes limited to fuel, food, and lodging when that access is consistent with the safe operation of the vehicle and when the facility is within one road mile of identified points of ingress and egress to or from highways specified in subparagraph (A) for use by that vehicle.
