And an indemnity from an individual can quickly prove to be not worth the paper its written on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-84845912224200460862011-02-23T22:06:11.362-05:002011-02-23T22:06:11.362-05:00Anon 6:22 Thank you for the lesson in contemporary...Anon 6:22 Thank you for the lesson in contemporary salt spreading. Lets see.. the dark ages work. There is no money to change. What you mention costs bucks and with this austerity at all levels of government, maybe one day, your ideas may come to fruition. But, not now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-44912909366908636232011-02-23T18:22:57.013-05:002011-02-23T18:22:57.013-05:00Salt spreading in PA is wacky and dangerous.

These set-ups are popular because they are inexpensive. They are also inherently dangerous.<br /><br />Surrounding states use much safer methods. Some use combination dump bodies, which have conveyors built into the dump body floor to deliver material to the rear of the truck without dangerously raising the dump body. These conveyors can be covered at any time for use of the truck for year-round operation. The PA Turnpike has recently begun purchasing these.<br /><br />Other states use "v-box" spreaders that slide into dump trucks and provide spreading of salt without raising the body. PA is still in the dangerous dark ages when it comes to spreading salt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-3411066784047673522011-02-23T07:29:44.986-05:002011-02-23T07:29:44.986-05:00does finnigan have a cdl?does finnigan have a cdl?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
