Can my AI check for low bridges on a truck route in California?

Yes! Use the `get_bridge_clearances` tool with jurisdiction=CA to get all bridge clearance data for California. You can also filter by bounding box or radius from specific coordinates. The API returns bridge locations, clearance heights in feet, bridge identifiers, and road names. This is essential for truck height compliance planning and avoiding low-bridge incidents.

How do I find truck parking near a specific location for HOS compliance?

Use the `get_truck_parking` tool with lat, lon, and radius parameters to find truck parking facilities near your current location. For example: lat=41.8781, lon=-87.6298, radius=50 finds parking within 50km of Chicago. Results include facility names, coordinates, capacity information, and amenity details. This is critical for Hours of Service (HOS) compliance planning and safe rest stop identification.

Are there any seasonal weight restrictions affecting my route right now?

Use the `get_weight_restrictions` tool with jurisdiction and status=active to find all current weight restrictions in a state or province. You can also filter by specific road name (e.g., road=I-94) to check restrictions on a particular highway. Returns restriction details, weight limits, effective dates, and affected road segments. Essential for avoiding weight violation fines and planning compliant loads.
