I passed just over a year ago, but I’m paranoid about bridge heights. I have two HGV sat-navs (only use one, one is a back-up) and a Phillips atlas. I have a good job, and it’s not worth losing it for the sake of a few minutes preparation. All the best with it.

Dont have a truck sat nav but did check the route & a bit like you about bridge height if in doubt dont go down but I do have a mark one eyeball & do read the road ahead this bridge just not marked as said police treat it as an everyday occurrence as if they know it not marked
Good luck with your job hope you enjoy
‘Vikings Tip of the Day’
When you go anywhere near building sites or landfills or quarry’s or anywhere off road, especially when it’s dry & dusty, wind your windows up & drive at ‘1’ mph, even when it’s wet & muddy drive as slow as possible (I know you need momentum/traction) this stops it getting Filthy & Splashed, saving lots of time cleaning it every day !
Also, when its wet wear wellies or change your normal driving boots, then put an old towel in the footwell until you get back on the road. (That way it limits the amount of Crap you drag into the cab !)
