Why this exists
WillIFit.ai is built and run by Dan, a film & video production professional who spends real days driving tall vehicles — grip trucks, cube trucks, high-roof vans — into cities that were not designed for them. The site started as the tool he wished existed: type in your vehicle's height, see which garages, tunnels, and bridges actually clear it, before you're nosed up against a 6'8" bar with a line of cars behind you.
There's no venture funding and no data-resale business here. The site is free to use, and it covers its costs with small, clearly-labeled local sponsor slots.
Where the data comes from
- OpenStreetMap — the community-mapped skeleton of garages, tunnels, and parking facilities.
- FHWA National Bridge Inventory — the federal record of low-clearance bridges.
- AI verification — we read the posted clearance sign directly from Google Street View imagery using Claude Vision, and store the exact Street View panorama so you can check the sign yourself. Full methodology here.
- Operator websites — published clearance specs from airports, venues, and garage operators.
- Drivers like you — every location has a report button; corrections go into a review queue checked by a human.
Our honesty rules
A clearance database you can't trust is worse than none. So every entry wears its provenance:
And the rule that overrides everything: the posted sign at the entrance is the only authoritative number. Our data is for planning; the sign is for committing. Clearances change with re-paving, re-signage, and renovations — entries older than two years get flagged as potentially stale, and anything a driver reports gets re-checked.
What's in the database
25,000+ locations across 226 US cities: parking garages (with per-lane clearances where posted), tunnels, low bridges, and oversized-vehicle-friendly lots. Browse the full city directory, read the clearance heights guide, or open the map and put in your height.
