Dirty Side Goes Down Folks.

If you are light and the reader boards say gusts 60+ closed to light high profile vehicles, that means vans. This was about 25 miles north of Cheyenne. Police were not even there yet.

I reckon that's a great reason to heed the warnings isn't it! Well I hope to be hauling flatbed so hopefully I won't end up flipping either.

Yep...roll overs this week in WY KS and two in IL. Not cool. My butt was parked lol

Don't think for a millionth of a second that a skateboard can't get tossed around by the wind the same as a van. Remember, not all flatbed loads are low-profile loads, and wind doesn't have to only blow from the side to send you flying. It can also get up underneath and pick you up.

You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger, and you don't mess around with wind.

(My apologies to Jim Croce)

To add to what fats said, yes some loads are just as dangerous to haul as van loads. There's a place we pick up from where we haul dry wall. It's stacked skinny and tall, can't be tightened too much or will damage the product. I can feel every gust of wind and every turn with that stuff. Can't stand it.
