I do know that we had a rash of debris (ladders, saw horses, etc) on the Interstates caused by contractors not loading their pu's properly. Several serious accidents were caused and I believe a couple of deaths. This prompted the State Police to issue warnings via local tv to such contractors that the police would be patrolling and ticketing trucks with unsafe loads. Accidents/deaths caused by these kinds of incidents were going to be prosecuted to the full extend of the law, etc.
