The campaign targets all classes of drivers operating commercial trucks, leased trucks (such as delivery and moving box-type trucks), recreational and construction vehicles, according to the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT).

Officials will “encourage operators of commercial trucks, rental vans, RVs, and other large vehicles to double-check their clearance to safely travel under bridges that extend over state and local roads.”

“These types of incidents take away resources from other infrastructure projects, and many times require support from our emergency response partners,” said INDOT Commissioner Lyndsay Quist. “Drivers must know the height of their vehicle or load and pay close attention to bridge clearance signage. They cannot rely only on navigation systems or apps.”

“Checking your vehicle height will help keep everyone on our roads safer,” said Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear. “Whether you’re a parent driving a moving truck for your kid’s college move-in day, a long-haul trucker, RV adventurer, or hauling a horse trailer to one of Kentucky’s famous racetracks – taking a couple extra minutes to know your vehicle’s clearance can prevent serious damage.”
