If you live in rural TX, OK panhandle, western KS, or eastern CO please put your mailbox at least 6' from the roadway...we move countless 18-26' wide loads along that corridor every year. That puts at least 5' of overhang out each side of the trailers! It's amazing how many people when asked to wait on the shoulder til the oversize load passes will pull back onto the road less than 20' in front of us...at that point we have to decide between a moron or a mailbox! Mailboxes don't sue, but morons families do...
