    You're exactly right, didn't wash off worth a da**.

    Loaded coils at Majestic Steel Bedford Hts. Ohio, went outside the building to secure and tarp, was on the deck and this o/o was on the phone, got in his truck and failed to watch his right side.

    I thought, well ain't that a fine Howdy Do..

    He stopped and we exchanged pleasantries (insurance companies too) and down the road he went.

    A lot of things factor into that. Multiple stops, size of the freight, fragile items and most importantly, weight.
    "Most" places that TMC loads at have been loading their freight for a long time and know what they are doing to get the most on the trailer and not be over weight. That said, there are places you load at that you will need to ask some questions. TMC trailer axles can take up to 40,000 and still be legal, the truck drive axles cannot go over 34,000 and 12,000 on the steers. Do the math and you can see where you can get in trouble if you're not paying attention and asking questions.

    The best place to start asking questions,,,,,, is when your with your trainer.

    Be safe!
