How does that happen? Buses are to be specific height. Bridges, a specific height.

I just read the bus went through an area he wasn’t supposed to.

Isn't there a network (Tru or A&E) that airs a show about Miami Airport's behind-the-scenes operations?

Probably an immigrant bus drive saw the "Height 12" sign and thought to himself "12 meters...plenty of room."

They clearly needed a warning sign without numbers...

This is the show: Airport 24-7 Miami. I think it is current though I have yet to see it:

FLL is a good airport. MIA is where Hyman Roth was killed in Godfather II.

So you have GPS navigation in your RV, it should be smooth sailing now. Well, maybe not quite. There are issues that can be experienced when using many of the makes and models with an RV or any larger than a normal size vehicle.

MIA is like a small third world country. It’s ranked as the top airport for TSA theft. It’s long been a place to get your luggage stolen, too. Do a Google search on “site:freerepublic.com miami airport” to get an idea of all the junk that happens there.

And trying to return a rental car there is an absolute nightmare. Literally drove around the airport three times to find the darned rental car return area.
