If we are going to be a chemical tanker hauler then give us the right equipment to haul it. This has been my pet peeves going on three years of speakups to equipment specs. But it seems to go to corporate safety.
I have requested all new trailers to be equipped with one UN flippable numbers placard and two slide ins and one regular placard. They say it would cost 11.00 per placard extra. They say it's a regional problem and not worth the extra cost. I have UN Placards almost on every trip. So what, I'm tired of when it gets cold or raining you loose half of them before you get to the meet point only having to replaced it again. I guess they think that had no cost.
But corporate worries how many times the damn truck records. Fedex get your priorities in order. These placards bring big tickets when they fly off. Either be a freight company and act like one or quit hauling chemical totes that require UN numbers
