To add a little more information to that which C offehölic has wrote ,the may also get your load taken off your lorry and transported by a german company,with you being asked to leave the country if you are unable to adjust your running height to that of the leagal limit of 4.00 m, also if you have hit a bridge due to the illeagal height the costs of the inspection of the bridge will be also recovered from you or your firm,

Dafdave are there not 3 bridges in germany between achen and koln near duren that are 4 0mtrs and not all that well signposted?

The Germans will not necessarily signpost a 4.0m bridge. With a 4.0m height limit they may only sign bridges less than that. You’re right there are a few lowish bridges along that section.
