Good for you dude, noticed how they said "subsidies" Without those "subsidies" it wouldn't be "competitive". Keep making that money I guess.
Train vs windmill blade on truck, guess who wins.

[QUOTE="Rontonio, post: 11543074, member:32108]
you have to wait
this clearly is a screw up but it wouldn’t be an off route issue.
The main screw up here was whoever in Austin issued him a route requiring him to go south on 80 in the first place. The permit should have kept him on 183 ever since he left the tollway. -
the permit office requires the transport company to conduct and file a route survey for the entire route traveled in Texas.
Any restrictions for size or weight that requires an override (ie explicit permission) is then sent to the district engineer for approval and sign off.
The route surveyor certifies that the route can be done and then permits are issued. This process can take anywhere from 3 days to several weeks.
the tollways have their own restricted are generally not available to loads of this size.
it is a very complex process to move loads of this size - there are unfortunately this that go wrong.
for scale - these loads are nearly 4 times as large as a regular 5 axle configuration and with the rear over hang in the range of 80 plus feet, there is always risk when moving.
When other vehicles get around the loads - a significant number will refuse to give the additional room that good sense would dictate - this is both cars and large trucks.
This makes a difficult job even more challenging.Cattleman84, TripleSix, Roberts450 and 5 others Thank this. -
