Always look at the BOL. The load is our responsibility once we sign for it. If there is ever a question as to what exactly that means; ask us or ask your Driver Leader. And don’t arbitrarily break the seal, not the driver’s call unless asked to-do so specifically by a LEO.

If the BOL states a 40,000lb load...rule of thumb, it should be scaled. Even so, a brand new driver can easily tell the difference between a 40k lading and a near empty trailer.

I probably should know this but I don’t: G-Town what does LEO stand for?

OMG, ya’ll crack me up!!! All I can say is you can’t fix stupid, even with duct tape confused.gif

I'm disappointed, I thought duct tape fixed everything....

I am always amazed at how many unlocked trailers i see on the road and at truck stops. Swift requires a specific lock, and it is to be used on all trailers. Loaded and MT.

I have my own padlock I put on those loads that have the cheap seals easily broken....
