From time to time I haul bridges from Greeley (Big R Bridge) to Cali......You would think that since those bridges are not solid like a van would be that the winds would just blow through.....
Nope....A driver flipped his rig at Sierra and the 15 (Below Devore) last Spring loaded with a 40' x 120" bridge.....Winds were blowing around 30 kts (24 mph) with gust upwards to 65 kts (74 mph).....
Those side winds can be tricky......
CHAINING...are you ready?
