I have the chance of doing my first continental job this weekend over to Belgium. Does anyone have any tips or hints, things to watch out for, speed limits etc. I have a tom tom with Europe on , are they any good over the water?
Also bridge hights are the unmarked ones as over here.
Thanks in advance
First point all bridges under 4.00m are marked normaly, 4.00m is the EU
norm for trailers to be used in the EU.you will require the EURO vingette
for every day you are in BELGIAN; HOLLAND;
LOOK HERE–http://www.ages.de to see where to buy your vingette,
where are you going and have you looked a route up.
the Kennedy tunnel is forbidden for all hazerdous loads
this means you may have to use the toll route if going through
Antwerp,
speed limits look at the german tips post as there are some good points of reference there whic h you can use,there is also a list of speed limits for all of europe their.
any more questions just post them as some one will
give you a answer,
