wet surfaces, at higher speeds, or with a full load.
Stopping distance will increase with a full load. Slow
down before starting up or down a hill.
E. When loading the box, distribute load evenly. Use
extra caution if the load exceeds the dimensions of
the box. Operate vehicle with extra caution when
handling loads that cannot be centered. Keep loads
balanced and secure to prevent them from shifting.

verse to forward, or forward to reverse, without first
coming to a complete stop.

other unsafe driving actions that may cause a loss of

do. Obey all traffic rules and regulations.
