Thanks Henry.
I've taken the road to Toronto 407, without a trailer in the distant past,
my 1st trip into Canada with a Class A motorhome. I remember coming up on a
low bridge sign, at 110 KPH, with the clearance in Meters. Quick conversion
in my head from feet and I thought we were OK but I told the kids to hold
on, we may be stopping quickly. We cleared it but they still rag me about
it.
