If he makes it out of CA, AZ or NM will educate him.
aiwiron Thanks this. -
Well, this is technically a non-permitable load. And yes they do exist. It is NOT overwieght. Government Pass. Just long and Flexible to a degree.
I really just wanted some experienced drivers that new the trip and could forward some thoughts on each route. -
Your going to have you butt nailed to the wall I do alote of oversize loads I moved one for the state of Texas and had a police excort and first thing they wanted to see was my permit if it's longer than 75ft or hangs off the trailer more than 4ft you need a permit
ewill71, the gambler and chalupa Thank this. -
I have ran that route many times. but as others have already warned you are asking for trouble. 14'2" is over height.
Unless you are driving a government tractor and trailer you will get no free pass from anyone.
96 feet long load, bad juju with no permit and I run permit loads for a living and if it is non permit-table then you are illegal.the gambler Thanks this. -
96 long and no permit or escort, cali is going to chew you up if your caught AZ or TX wow you could of picked a few states that are not as harsh with this stuff if your running like that
the gambler and aiwiron Thank this. -
Since he has the government pass, his escorts may be black helicopters.

I-10 is the "best" routing for this run....no escort huh...no PD for some of those tight curves...like down and around Benton, clearances through the Phoenix tunnel, cause you sure won't want to try the 10/17 curve...even the HazMat bypass through San Antonio (410?)....glad it's you driving and not me!!!
what about that underpass just after Redlands? Is that 15'?aiwiron and the gambler Thank this. -
What type of trailer are you pulling that's 14'2 high?
-
this is true or unmarked escorts, still seems off though but maybe he can't say any morethe gambler Thanks this.
