ABSTRACT:
An overhead sensing device for motor vehicles and the like comprises a non-conductive flexible feeler adapted for contacting an overhead obstruction, and an actuation device for outputting a signal in response to the non-conductive flexible feeler contacting an overhead obstruction. An audible and a visual signal device signals the operator in the case where the non-conductive flexible feeler contacts an overhead obstruction. The audible and visual signaling device are operative in response to the output of the actuation device. A control device, including a remote control device, controls the height of the non-conductive flexible feeler above a highest point of the motor vehicle.
