Run this load?

I wouldn't run it....
Miller can rework the load, or they can find someone else to run it.

 

No.

dont move another inch till your company demands and gets the rework.

 

nope, put it over qualcom that its illegal and they give you flak, call safety. good luck

 

They have no choice they either re/work it or they keep it. The law is on your side in this situation, with both shipper and your company.
By the way king pin tickets in CA are very costly.
I remember reading a post awhile back, CA popped him for two holes. Over $1500 citation.

 

Did you scale it with it being CA legal, or where the tandems are in the picture?

Whatever, you need to scale it at legal settings so they know exactly how much over you are.

 

I run mostly in Cali. You probably would slide with the 2 hundred over, they'll hammer you though, if you're caught on being over 40'.

 

While I have never pulled these loads. I do have a number of coworkers and others that do. they always have legal loads. If not, it gets fixed before they leave. Sort of end of story.

Tell shipper load needs rework to make legal, send in to dispatch that load is not legal and needs rework to make it so. If shipper says no reworking load to make legal, take it as is. send that to dispatch as well. Next ask shipper where they want the trailer parked, because you will not be taking it as it is and or until you get a decision from your company in writing directing you to haul an unlawful load.

My guess it will get fixed before that happens.

Remember to be polite during all of this. the kill with kindness thing.

 

My ticket for kpra violation was $137.

 

Did they let you roll? Or did you have to sit at the coop waiting to have the load adjusted.

 

52' spread axle cattle trailer. Turned me around, so I came back in on the back roads
