Sings, Lights and flags Requirements and Additional Information in Maine
Sings, Lights and flags Requirements: Any permit for oversized loads must contain ‘Oversize Load’ signs and flags that apply to the load’s whole width and length. The signs should be placed on the front bumper and rear of the load. 18-inch by 18-inch flags must be put at the load’s corners and broadest points. Any overhang longer than 4 feet must be marked, and if the overhang is more than 2 feet wide, two flags are required. While driving, use low beam headlights (which are not necessary for overweight loads) and an illuminated, revolving amber light or light bar on the top of the cab. When the load is not large, the load signs must be removed or covered, and the amber beacon lights turned off.
All oversize movements need low beam headlights as well as flashing, revolving, or amber lights on the cab’s top.
