    Only the pilot car if one is needed is required to have signs in Tx. No beacon required on the load but a lot of times I throw one on anyway. Flag the corners and let her roll. Night time only on the interstate for 10 and under, and check for curfews. They have been changing them a lot lately. Houston and Beaumont no longer has a curfew according to my last blanket. 30 min before sunrise to 30 min after sunset.

    Trucks never need signs or beacons in Texas. Flag the corners and go.

    Yesterday in Clarksville two huge trucks were moving giant round cylinders. The trucks with them were blocking off side streets with big LED signs. Then pilot trucks too. The trailers had 20 small wheels front to back. There were two of them. Amazing.
