Saw a F2F truck today...

Oddly enough, he was parked facing South on the shoulder of PA 437 in Mountain Top, PA just south of Crestwood Rd. Odd, because PA 437 south of Crestwood Rd. is restricted for 102" trailers longer than 24' in length. He was hooked to a 53' X 102". I pulled alongside to see if he was lost and needed help getting back to a legal route, but the driver's seat was empty.

 

Well I follow F2F, and wish them success. It's no secret that Bill wants those who partner with him to succeed.

I posted this because I thought that Bill might be interested in the fact that one of the drivers he's partnered with may be putting him in a precarious situation by exposing him to fines for pulling his trailer on a route that's restricted to that type of trailer.

I'm sure that Bill knows where his trucks are, so I didn't call out the truck number.

 

Mea Culpa. Sometimes I act before thinking.

 

Actually, the I-81 exit to 309 South is the best option if you're coming from the north. There is a truck restriction on 309 South, but only when PennDot decides that it's snowy / icy enough to warrant it. Last year, there was significant construction done to make that route even safer for CMVs, so the restriction was never in place during the winter of 2015/2016.

And you are correct, from the South, exit 262 is the route of choice to Mountain Top. PA.
