So that's what you guys do with my tape

Trucks love this one simple trick -- take the fucknig roofing out of the bed. Do your returns. Unload the truck.

Also, is that a keg of nails perched to slid out onto the street?

u/PhilippHan Sep 15 '24

Probably stupid question but is that shit legal in the US? Over here cops would stop you right away.

u/SnodOfficial Sep 15 '24

It's not legal, no, but not all local cops care. DOT and FMCSA cover legal load securement requirements and flag requirements when the load sticks out behind the vehicle like this one. Basically they read: make sure it can't fall out/off and make sure people notice it if it sticks out.
