Avoid most multi-storey car parks. You may be able to get under the height barrier at the entrance but the height available on the interior ramps is often a different matter.

As said, avoid all multi stories. They measure the vertical separation, but as Bongy goes down the ramp she will pivot on the rear axle and the bit behind that will go up. There will be concrete here.

A few have been caught by this.
