Good one!
I am about the same speed as most trucks, in the right lane not impeding anyone.
If I am causing others WORSE gas mileage just to improve my own, for the greater good I would not do it.
The regular lights on the flatbed were perfectly adequate. (Already DOT approved.)
It was not oversize - unless it technically was - and was no more difficulto pass in the next lane thany other vehicle.
Everyone was asking why any flashing lights at all.
From what we observed, there appeared no reasons and no DOT requirements to have the lights blinding everyone. (But we do not know
the width.)
I should write DOT and complain abouthis requirement.
Such lightshould be dimmed at night.
They created a hazard of sight recovery after passing.
[Wide Load] when cargo inside flatbed dimensions?

Every state is different....(So why do we pay the UCR again?
)
Cali you can tug up to 100' long...Over that you need a permit....AZ, UT, CO...Those pipe loads I haul that hang 9' over the tail...Yep...Have to be permitted....
CO 14' 6" for legal height...Cali no higher than 14 on a "divisible load"....
And IIRC...AZ requires an Amber light permit....But I have yet to see it enforced.....Hell....DOT at the St. Geo. coop told me legal width in AZ (On the books) is 96" wide....How many of you run AZ in a 102"?
