    Don't forget the ramp exit speed. If it says 25 mph and it's the middle of the night you slow down to 20 or less BEFORE the sign.

    As a future truck driver, the #1 sign, is the most critical, I am extremely happy that this sign was discussed. Thank you.

    I think the Bridge sign is the most important because in 20 years of driving a sardine can nowadays is more common than a runaway truck.

    Another sign CMV drivers also need to be aware of is found on many highways with 3 or more lanes in each direction. They are truck lane restriction signs to keep trucks out of the far left lane(s). In the Chicago area where I drive often these signs are quite common. Unfortunately I see some CMV drivers violating the lane restriction postings.

    • @smartdrivetest
      @smartdrivetest  7 лет назад +1

      Hi John Falzone - thanks for your comment. Yes, it was often referred to as the "Big $$ dollar" lane in trucking. Thank you for that sign - that is a good sign. I'll have a look on Google and put that up on the website. Thanks again for that information. All the best, Cheers Rick

    In British Columbia, signs intended primarily for heavy truck and commercial vehicle drivers have dashed borders on them.
    As for object markers, think of their stripes as parts of arrows pointing _down_ towards the lane you need to be in. If such stripes are painted on the road, imagine the stripes as parts of arrows pointing _forward_ with their stems positioned right on the lane you need to be in.
    And if you think you don't need to pay attention to height signs, then just look at yovo68's channel on RUclips.

    Is it true that when the weight scale ramp is full, we can bypass the scale?

    No trucks over two axles? No thru trucks?
    What do those mean?
    Is it still ok to drive a 26 foot box truck through?
    A little different than a semi, but what about those trucks and signs?
