I always thought it was a good idea to recheck it when you stop throughout the day also. And with the escort in the seat if he’s a big boy! Haha.
These permit routes are getting out of hand.

I wasn’t dinged or anything because sheriff came out and after surveying everything says the cable company has been doing work there recently and let a line sag....

I had messed up routing lots of times moving frac pumps around pa/wv/oh. Lots of times they'd route us on the 2 lanes like us22 in sw Ohio and pa instead of running 77, 70, 79
I picked up a pump one time at cat next to the petro in Wilkes Barre. Heading to Schlumberger's yard in Denton TX. Instead of routing me down 81-40 they sent me clear out to ST Louis and down 44. Not a single coop was open on the way, that was surprisingshawnhhllc and Coffey Thank this. -
After this trip I'm considering getting my own high pole for the front of my truck to check the height on lines and such after my lead calls out a hit, or in instances like last week going through watkins glen and grabbing a line that my lead never mentioned he touched. We have another owner op that does this. He keeps his lead 6 inches over his permit height like supposed to but puts his own pole up right at his permit height and when in questionable situations helps him to know exactly if he can clear it without having to commit fully. Right now a 23ft wonder pole is less than $200 and comes with all the hardware and 2 tips. Making a holder wouldn't be an issue.

If it pays by the mile and you bid it right who cares how many miles it is, the more the better!
Not that I like some of the highways they put you on especially Texas!
