even legally there will be some tolerance, if a sign is saying maxheight 2,
you will not have any problems even if your vehicle is 2.01 metres high, nor
will a possible fine depend on the quality of measuring device used by the
police to get to an infinite number of trailing zeros before a 1.

Still I agree that 2.0 is different to 2 as ít indicates probably the
precision of the number.
