    Look in the front of the Trucker's Atlas. It should tell you where the restrictions are.

    What do you mean by strict? If you 13'6, you better not go under any bridge marked 13'6 or lower.

    No. LA will pop you for over height at times. I think it depends on their mood.

    sxdime, Mr&MrsPete are right LA is a 14' state as well as TX and MO. MS is 13'6 but they have the unwritten rule of 14' for car haulers. As long as you are under 14 you will be fine except Arkansas, sometimes they will mess with you and sometimes they won't.

    I'd ask the horse, itself.
    The other options well..... I'm not a fan of guess, hope & pray.
