How low it gets here
Of the 715 restrictions in Calvados, 246 are under 2.5 m, 78 sit between 2.5 and 3.2 m — the band where a typical motorhome has to stop — 76 between 3.2 and 4.0 m, and 92 above 4.0 m. The median signed clearance is 2.40 m.
What the numbers leave out
223 of them state no height at all. That is not a clear road: somebody recorded a limit without a number. Treat those as obstacles of unknown height. Where nothing is signed, the general limit in France applies — 4.00 m.
