    This was a feature in TomTom and any commercial GPS product in the 2000s. If it wasn't configured then you can't go after the service. The driver should have still been checking and judging if the bridge was too low for them.

    Why did you do this to me, for what reason, what is the charge? Eating a packet of crisps? A succulent bag of crisps? Oh, that's a nice headlock sir, oh, ah yes, I see that you know your judo well.

    Theoretically it should be possible in apps that use OpenStreetMap data, as long as all bridges on the route have maximum height information added to them, the app in question supports the feature, and the app's user inputs their maximum height. If any bridges along the route didn't have a maximum height value set, the app could give the driver a warning to look for it themselves.
