As a once flatbedder myself it amazes me how many trucks I see hauling flat steel with nothing more than a few straps with plastic strap protectors on them thrown across the load.
For your own safety take a couple of minutes and throw a couple of chains on the front and rear or at LEAST build a header!
Trip chains.

They don't "have time" to throw any x-straps or chains, or build any bulkheads across the front, but they do have time to spend 6 hours in an intersection with product up to or in their sleeper and on the roadway, waiting for assistance and dealing with company safety director and probably costing them a job, and potentially a life
