Rod's approach to oversized movements is a team effort.With the driver in the lead, Rod will assist in ensuring the load is secured and properly marked, the route is reviewed with all parties involved and potential hazards are noted. During the move, the securement of the load is monitored for potential hazards and changes that may be made as well as roadway and traffic conditions that can effect the move.
