    I came in from the east side of town. 36 to 35w south, took the Wahington Ave exit. Left on 3rd, followed 3rd Ave to 16th st. On paper, seems easy. On the satellite map, looks like a nightmare. That city has dozens of walkways going over the streets connecting buildings. On street view, it doesn't look like trucks will fit under them, hence the dilemma. You can get under them, but just barely. That was an example of a time where I would have felt better in a mid-roof truck pulling a flatbed. I was sweating bullets the whole trip in.

    Oh I'm sure he wasn't cuz couldn't even just put yourself in the sleeper and wait till your turn. Had to keep moving up as each truck moved it...its ridiculous. No reason it should be 1st come 1st serve in that type of situation
     
    MACK E-6 and Suspect Zero Thank this.
