As a driver for Bristol Omnibus when I first came to the city, we were told that the driver had to learn all the low bridges in the city. On top of that, the height of the bus was painted in the cab just above the drivers head. We had both high and low decker buses. Even today the bus height is printed in the cab. I drove city and country buses for over 10 years. (A bit deferent to firing Garratt's).
