    FYI Tennessee wants flags at the top and bottom of the longest points. Kind of a unique requirement.

    Red or fluorescent orange flags shall be fastened to the load (front and rear) at the top and bottom of each side which is widest. Flags shall extend from the load in such a manner as to be visible to traffic approaching from both the front and rear. If the widest part of the load is between the top and the bottom, flags shall be placed at this point both front and rear.

    Yeah you know we thought it was leading up to something besides seriously wanting to know. Ever felt like you might got a reputation following you around??

    Pretty sure this is Cats theme song...



    Cats is staring in a new production "The Cat that cried Wolf". Look for it on Broadway in 2019.

    ;)

    Sirscrapntruckalot - Cats causing trouble? No way! - Said nobody ever that is a regular on TTR. :)

    Thanks for the warning. I do use these websites for quick reference. I also look at the state sites.

    download the currant provision sheets for each state you will be travelling through and plan to comply when rating the load.
