The Truckers’ Report flatbed Hall of Shame.

Maybe it was sitting on one of those hitch mounted carriers? Or at least sitting on the hitch (I hope)?

 

i don't think so
i really think it was just strapped to the back.
straight up and down.

don't worry, nothing bad will happen

Yesterday in Idaho I saw three separate hay trucks pulling doubles loaded with square bales, and NO STRAPS over any of the bales. I wish I could have gotten pictures, but they were going the opposite direction on the interstate. The #### those ag guys get away with boggles my mind. Here I’m losing sleep over a load of logs 6” too wide, and these clowns are cruising down the highway at 70 without a care in the world.

 

Hay is special. They usually tie it front to back with straps or heavy rope.

 

What @Ruthless said, I'll bet being in Idaho they had cable running front to back with winches on the back to tighten them.

 

Nope, I was able to see the front to back of the load. A lot of times you’ll see straps over the front bales, and one over the rear with the stacks in the middle free to fall off the side.

Every time I make that trip there’s a loose bale laying in the ditch.

Now that’s funny. At least the pallet won’t fly off the top?

 

Hot #### thats good! We run them rooftops all the time, but thats a first
