How low it gets here
Of the 853 restrictions in Vaud, 149 are under 2.5 m, 68 sit between 2.5 and 3.2 m — the band where a typical motorhome has to stop — 72 between 3.2 and 4.0 m, and 116 above 4.0 m. The median signed clearance is 3.00 m.
What the numbers leave out
448 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 Switzerland applies — 4.00 m.
