Passed a guy this morning, going east on 10.
Had 3 sheets of 9-10ft wide by 40ft long 1 inch steel plates.
Dude had 7 straps on... is it me or is that a big no no?

You can strap plate steel, not the best option though.. 7x5400=37,800

Something up front is a good idea, but not legally required. -
misterG and 4mer trucker Thank this.

Yea and that guy had vertical leverage that this guy didnt... 2x4, sheet, 2x4,sheet, 2x4, sheet.
Total less than a foot high. Hanging 9-12inches over each side. Strap has no leverage.
I would at least want to cross 2 chains around the nose.. -
