I actually did something like that. Delivering furniture for a leasing company back when I was going to school. Low Bridge. Thought is would fit. Found out I was wrong.
I thought the trick was to let the air out of the tires, thus lowering the van.
From the picture, that looks like it could be a parking structure, often they'll say 'no vans' or vehicles over 6'.I heard this before but considered it a joke. I always thought engineers designed the driving height of bridges for all cars and trucks with high trailers to drive under.

If I'm not mistaken the sign with 2.2m inside a red circle means "No vehicle over 2.2 meters (7.2 feet) allowed"
Apparently, the driver left his tape measure at home.
In the USA, the Federal Highway Administration sets bridge clearances for roads under their control, however, local and state bridges don't have to abide by federal regulations and so heights can vary quite a bit on state, county and city roads.I heard this before but considered it a joke.

I don't know about Europe but I don't know, I believe something like the FHA wouldn't have jurisdiction if this is in fact a parking structure (private property).In the USA, the Federal Highway Administration sets bridge clearances for roads under their control, however, local and state bridges don't have to abide by federal regulations and so heights can vary quite a bit on state, county and city roads.
