TMC Flatbed Strap Load Fail

This is not typical of TMC. TMC drivers seem to be pretty cool drivers and drive safe. This is just a situation that happens to everyone at one time or another. In transit a strap or two might work itself loose. That big piece he has with the real loose strap still has three holding it down but the problem is the DOT. Safety wise I'd say his load looks OK but the coppers and DOT just LOVE to see this. It gives them an excuse to pull you over. Then they rake you over the coals while they go on a fishing expedition to try and find more on you.
