    And of course Bethlehem Steel. Born and died there, I reckon.

    These steel cylinders and sheeting rolls are a big deal around here, too (Steel industry, Birmingham). I think the local politicians drove some legislation recently that not only increased the requirements for securing the loads, but also some still penalties for dropping the load.


    There have been a few injuries, and many tens of thousands of dollars in highway damage over the past few years.

    Wow.


    I've been carrying around this 213,000-pound cylinder for years now, and didn't know I needed a permit. I guess I've gotta go talk to the CHP or something.

    @WilliamG.: The lesson here being "If you drive a Chinese car, for God's sake don't hit anything more solid than a rain squall"? Caution should be exercised driving into those too, I imagine.

    The Steel Factory closing?... Wait that was probably the most devastating... um idk but Lehigh University has some great parties.


    And For the Record I feel mislead. I thought a motorist got a 37000 ticket. No Fair. This actually seems legitimate

    @WilliamG.: I like this idea. Those bikes took up maybe half the width up there, if that; definitely room for at least one four-wheeler... plus, the entire roof!


    @Unevolved- Recommended by 4 out of 5 dentists.: I'm not so sure... you can get armoured cars that look pretty much exactly like normal cars! No way of telling from this far whether there's plating in the doors or inch-thick windows...


    @takeshi: I haven't looked around too much, but this manifested itself across the street from work on Wednesday... seeing it in person, its sheer size, is really something else. Suffice to say, I would feel very, very safe in that.
