Bulbs and fuses

is there a section in the regulations about carrying these? I have worked for companies that had a travel bag with extra bulbs lights and fuses. Tried searching on the fmsca site and it keeps bringing up drug testing procedures. Don't know what that has to do with a bulb lol.

 

Didn't know that. I always associated lamp with what I have on my night stand lol.

 

Thanks. Pulled out the Bible and looked it up. #### website trying to navigate that is like reading stereo instructions (showing my age with the Beetlejuice reference lol) something I noticed and the rules didn't specify (maybe another section) but fire extinguishers if you it in side box, do you have to have "fire ext. inside" on the door to the side box? I got into a friendly argument with my maintenance and safety dept. over this. I know sometimes a dot inspector can be anal. But my company has told me they follow some rules that their state of registry requires. In this case Alabama. But doesn't federal trump state? I mean I have heard that state level can impose stiffer penalties and fines higher than the federal level but never less.

 

Yeah that was what I was wondering. Something minor like a fuse or trailer light simple unplug the bad plug in the good and go was the required norm. I checked the regs, and if I read it right, it says carry fuses for what is already in truck

 

Did they get specific as to where it needed to be at? Usually they have been mounted beside drivers seat inside door or if in side box a notice on the side box door stating as such. Only time I have seen different is someone hauling class III and usually they have one mounted somewhere on trailer.
