Hauling Truck (3)

Mark Holloway

Tri State Motor Transit hauls explosives for the military. There is a reason for the separate boxes. Each box goes to a different destination. These boxes have each been inventoried by two or three people and then sealed. If they used a regular van type trailer to drop off a couple pallets then the entire trailer would have to be re-inventoried before they could close the doors and reseal it. I used to work in an Army ammo depot. This is placarded for 1.2 Explosives which means "Explosives with a projection hazard". These trucks always have teams driving them and I'm pretty sure they are armed but they won't tell you that. Inside the cab you'll find a 'panic button' in case someone tries to hijack them. They'll get help to you pronto! :-)
