The Truckers’ Report flatbed Hall of Shame.

He had pulled up to plate as I came into scale . Maybe he needs to lift it to adjust on trailer for weight purposes but he definitely was driving with it up

 

I am thinking that there is some power and tetephone outages in the area.

 

Taken from my camera.
Notice all the weight in the rear right secured by only 2 straps. Notice the bed leaning. Also there was a stack of 5 in front of that secured by 2 straps at the top that were flapping. Legal yes, because of the headboard but that was scary having him go by me like this.

 

This is how my driver brought a load in. He swears he was under the limit in the corners.!!!!

 

Same driver later that week. He doesn’t have a job

 

Is he aware that curtainsides still require securement? SMH

 

There are straps on the loaded picture.

 

Thought this was an interesting one.

 

He was strapped but straps really do no good on grass seed pallets. Straps keep dot from giving a ticket but the don’t secure very well. 5 bags per layer 7 layers strap cover a very small portion and the more you tighten them down the more the pallet falls apart. I never run straps on my seed loads I just don’t drive stupid.
