    Not for doubles and wider than 96". You WILL get spotted if you try to sneak through there with a 102". They look for trailer stickimg out past the drive tires.

    When the switch the Harbor Tunnel to two-way they knock the speed limit down to 35. In the one on 13 you have that at 55.
     
    Evomalo and JohnBoy Thank this.

    You sure you're not thinking of the Ft. McHenry Tunnel? Doubles are legal though that one.

    The Fort Mac has 4 tubes, two in each direction, two lanes each.

    The Harbor Tunnel has two tubes, one in each direction.

    Opinion time. WWYD if you saw these? No, they aren't the same two tires. They are every tire on one trailer.

    On my way to Seattle, with a stop in Moscow Idaho, 2 in Quincy Washington and the final in Seattle. All for Monday. Right now I'm parked at the Pilot in Raphine. I'll be up at 5am and start this journey.

    Yep. My thoughts exactly, AKJ said go back to W Memphis but guy in W Memphis wanted to argue with me. Guess since I'm a girl, he figured I just didn't know what I was talking about.
