    they're sure a pain in the ### on a rig move. always gotta park somewhere on the lease towing their shack behind them, and it's always in the way.

    Except water haulers. They drive however they want to, regardless of road, traffic, and weather conditions.

    But water haulers do 45 on highways that are posed at 55 or 60. And they pull out in front of oncoming traffic. Both of which make them risk factors for rear-end collisions.

    I've never seen a lease road that wasn't full of potholes and corrugation (washboarded) unless the maintainer had just finished blading it in the last few days, which is why 45MPH is too fast for any lease road.
