This #SafetySaturday, Keith provides us with some helpful tips to avoid hydroplaning:
1. Maintain sufficient tread depth & inflation (100-110psi)
2. Do not over-brake or over-accelerate
3. Roads are slickest in the first 30 minutes of a weather event
4. Bobtail trucks are especially vulnerable in these conditions

Proper packing and preparation of goods are always important when it comes to moving fragile freight. Here are some tips for transporting fragile loads:
• Use a solid base such as four-way pallets made of wood
• Stack it correctly - make sure boxes are stacked in a column pattern (corner to corner) this maintains the greatest stacking strength
• Use edge boards to prevent possible damage from external collisions and band pressure
Do you have any helpful tips for fragile loads? We want to hear them! Drop them in the comments below. 👇
