    Must not of realized it rained 5 inches in the last 72 hrs. Didnt get a chance to count axles, but a lot of them were steerable

    Do others share my discomfort at this recent British load? At the very least I would want every wheel stressed in both directions. I can't see if there are chocks nailed to the deck but even if there were I would want the chassis chained to keep them from overriding them.

    That truck on the rear looks a bit tall also.

    Yes but anything lower than 16 feet (I think from memory) is by law clearly marked in the UK and all motorway bridges are at least that. I was trying to judge from the picture how high it is compared to the Scania pulling it but, as I don't know the height of Scanias, I am a little disadvantaged there. :rolleyes:

    I think the height is ok.
    This is a picture I took last year when we were in Ireland. That is 12’ on the deck, so between 16’ and 17’ overall would be my guess IMG_7363.jpeg
