Blue and white triangle label on trailers

I've heard everything from it's there so an Amish buggy knows which side to pass a Schneider truck on to it's a depth perception aid for someone passing so they don't clip you.

 

It's the new DOT placard for Freezables.

 

Well originally it was designed as a pull tab. See our trailers are very visible and most folks think Schneider when they see Orange. So when a van driver put his truck in the ditch they were supposed to go pull that tab and the skin would come off and it would be a Swift trailer underneath. This was to help our image.

The problem was that the word never got out and so nobody knew.

 

It's a military symbol that is reflective, and is meant to warn a driver following the rig how far they have to move to the left when passing the rig in order to clear it.

 

It's a pull tab, quit trying to cover.

 

thats strange, I heard it was CR ENG,not swift

 

No,c.r was just a trial run.

 

Great, now next time I pass a Schneider truck with my buggy I'll have to look for the triangle.

 

Just don't go pulling it, unless it's in the ditch.

Furthermore I know Schneider trucks are slow but I take offense that a buggy could pass us. Or that it happens so often we need a sticker on the trailer.
