[Wide Load] when cargo inside flatbed dimensions?

Well the trl. could of been a 9 or 10 foot wide trl.
even the axles will be the same width. Mine is 9' wide and I have to run signs and flags, plus those annoying yellow lights as you call them.
Some state, if the ld. is overweight you still have to have the signs, even though it is not hanging over the sides of the trl...

Hope this calms your arse down about it.
But yes some drivers are too lazy to tke off the signs even when they have legal lds.
They get caught and it can get pricy..

 

If thats the worst thing that happened to you today. Well, Id say youve had a pretty #### good day...

 

Get over it, the road does not belong to you!

 

Sounds like the same person that would be whining if the lights were required but not operational. Some people just have to #####. SUV was all we needed to read, well that and Colorado.

 

Yep and if the ld. was wide and no lights, they would piss and moan about not seeing the wide ld. at night.
We have rules we need to follow.
Sorry it ruined your night time driving pleasure in your suv. Was it a bmw or mercedes model. lol
All you had to do was hit the gas pedal, signal for the lane change and go around those annoying yellow flashing lights.

 

If it was in Colorado I would bet it was an oilfield truck because most rig movers run 9 to 9'6" trailers because they are easier to load than an 8'6" wide trailer but I have to agree that this guy needs to get over himself. Get over it go around and just get down the road.

 

Could have even been a stretch flat, and the guy couldn't tell the difference.

Either way, if lights were bugging me like that I have a procedure I follow.

Plan A
Step 1: Shut off cruise control
Step 2: Slow Down about ten mph from previous speed.
Step 3: Maintain reduced speed rate for about three to five minutes.
Step 4: Resume previous speed, set cruise control, breathe easy and relax knowing you will never again see the offending vehicle.

Just in case plan A fails I have an emergency back up plan. Please be aware, as in addition to one extra procedural step. User will also be required to demonstrate an even higher level of maturity.

Plan B
Step 1: Shut off cruise control
Step 2: Slow down
Step 3: Take next off ramp
Step 4: Stop for ten minutes, and let offending vehicle get miles down the road.
Step 5: Resume previous speed, set cruise breathe easy and relax knowing you will never again see the offending vehicle.

Warning Plan A and Plan B both require an uncommon level of common sense to work correctly. Your results may vary.
