    IF THE SIGNS SAY " ACTUAL " under the height, then that's what it is. if your taking the BQE ( BROOKLYN QUEENS EXPRESSWAY) STAY IN THE MIDDLE LANE.GOOD LUCK!!!

    So the sign says 12'6" but it's really 14'1" then the next one says 12'6" but it's 12'6" so now my trailer is no longer 13'6".

    This is the best advice. Stay out of the right lane going N/E or you'll shave that top right corner off!

    Yup. You have that section passing by the statue of Liberty that's constructed like an upper and lower level terrace. The right lane is the no-go E/B, and the left lane going west.
