Florida Truck Accident?

Trucks on Florida highways may not drive in convoys and may not come closer than 300 feet to another vehicle unless the trucks are passing. A truck more than 12 feet wide must be accompanied by another vehicle to "escort" it. These big trucks must also have a clearly visible banner that says "oversized load."

Trucks may not exceed 13 feet and 6 inches in height or 75 feet in length. The maximum legal weight limit for trucks is 40 tons. Trucks are allowed a certain degree of "overhang," but this amount cannot exceed 3 feet in front or 4 feet in the rear. Florida also imposes time restrictions on when a truck can drive, and truckers must also obey posted signage. For instance, during road construction, the state may post stricter regulations on truck height than standard.g
