Driving in high winds, what do you do?

Balance the weight.

 

Slow down.

 

While driving in high wind conditions I find it preferable to park the truck.

 

Can someone explain California law in regards of a flatbed? Thank

 

King pin to rear axle length, commonly known as California legal if rear axle on spread will slide forward to create tandem set up. I just purchased one only to find other states also have King pin laws, so depending on where your headed, have to load accordingly, and that gets confusing to balance axle weights,and hard to slide once loaded

 

It does not matter if you have axles from God 5 miles behind you. Strong enough winds will flip you down.

 

Ca 40' kpra only applies if trailer >48'..
Making a 48' 10'1" spread valuable for heavy loads there..

 

Just get that pucker crease in the seat enlarged.

 

Having been blown over once, and almost blown over a few times, when in doubt, park it. Two years ago I came every close to ending up on my side, in a very bad situation, were it not for a straight truck that ran block for 30 miles. I cursed my bosses out for a week.
