The Iowa State Patrol Commercial Motor Vehicle Unit recently sidelined a vehicle for numerous serious safety violations, including load securement.

On May 27, Iowa troopers took to social media to call out a dangerous vehicle pulled over for a traffic stop in Burlington.

“This combination was stopped today in Burlington. Lights, brakes, cargo securement, and breakaway devices are all important. In addition, four out of service conditions that are easy to avoid!” said state police.

Troopers did not provide any information on citations issued.

Images shared by Iowa State Police show Caterpillar equipment on the trailer with no tie-downs.
