We had an empty crate being returned to us that got destroyed on the 
trip. Weighs about 25 tons empty and is 14 feet wide. Ships on an 
extended lowboy due to height restrictions. Driver couldn't be bothered 
to with permits. Tried to squeeze thru some newly placed jersey walls in 
some highway construction at high speed. 14 foot wide loads won't go 
thru 11 foot wide openings, even at 75 mph. Over 60K$ and 3 months to 
repair the crate. Insurance totaled the truck and the new lowboy the 
crate was on. It was the only load that freight company ever hauled for 
us, and they had just won the contract to make this run both directions 
with a 50 trip guarantee.
