How's this for load securement?

Steel hauler pulled out in front of the other driver

 

Every time I see one of these I feel extremely humbled by the forces at work in our industry and remain inordinately thankful that my company taught me how to secure things properly and go well above and beyond the required minimum.

 

That pic reminds me of this one I saw when I worked at Cressler Trucking, used to be owned by Keen. This was at their Carlisle terminal:

 

Yea, I've been there too.

I learned long ago not to have any lights on the truck that are not required by law. All chicken lights are good for is a ticket.

It may not be law but Spider is right, TN sure will give you a ticket for extra lights not working.

 

Yeeeeeouch.... Should've X strapped that

 

Where in Tenn. They let me go with three tail lights, said I only need two, about 10yrs ago.

 

Knoxville in both directions is who used to get me all the time. And it was a little longer than ten years ago. I honestly don't remember how much longer. I bought this truck at the end of 02, and have never added extra lights to it. So it was before that. But no earlier than 98 when i could start legally crossing state lines.
