Need a sat-nav app which takes vehicle size in to consideration

[Diddums x]

Drove a work van last week, drove through Rotherhithe tunnel, £130 fine. I never drive vans and thought this one would be fine but apparently not.

Luckily the PCN arrived today as I'm doing the same route tomorrow, so now I need an app which takes this sort of thing in to consideration.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I'm not sure about vans, but Copilot allows you to specify truck and caravan tailored routes for avoiding restrictions.

Cheers, I'll have a look, caravan should achieve the same I would've thought.

I'd take the mick but driving an N1 classified vehicle that is approx. 2 ton I've been finding with vans, etc. sometimes the rules and knowing how you stand with them with any individual vehicle is more obscure than you'd think.

EDIT: Incase you weren't aware vans usually have different speed restrictions to cars as well (NSL for most vans is 50mph not 60 for instance) - normally it isn't a problem but occasionally it is.

I wasn't aware, no. Lucky escape then! Thanks for pointing it out, I'd have happily driven everywhere over the speed limit without even knowing.

I know. I even had to squeeze the bloody thing through those silly barriers and didn't even think anything of it

Ah well, the fine is getting expensed and I'm lucky it was only a theoretical height, imagine if I peeled the roof off the thing in the middle of rush hour
