How many tie-downs are required for a flat-bed load?

  1. At least one tie-down for every 5 feet of cargo

  2. At least one tie-down for every 10 feet of cargo

  3. At least one tie-down for every 15 feet of cargo

  4. No tie-downs are needed for flat-bed loads

The correct answer is: At least one tie-down for every 10 feet of cargo

The requirement of at least one tie-down for every 10 feet of cargo on a flat-bed load ensures that the load is securely fastened, minimizing the risk of shifting or toppling during transportation. This regulation helps prevent accidents and ensures compliance with safety standards. Properly securing the cargo is vital for maintaining control of the vehicle and protecting both the driver and other road users. Loads that exceed certain lengths require additional tie-downs to provide sufficient restraint and stability throughout the journey. It's essential to adhere to these guidelines to promote safety on the road.
