    Keep the doors shut and you'll be fine.

    How do you keep the doors shut on a flatbed? Asking for a friend.

    Try to run through DC, Baltimore and Atlanta late at night. Take the beltway in Jacksonville.

    If they just. won't let you park there at unloading place you can cut over to toll rd. and sleep in one of the parking area in the center of the toll rd. and get up early and eat at one of the food places and just run down it till you get close and cut back over to I-95 and get unloaded and try to find a load back north, or dead/head to atl. and try for a load from there?
