2004 NEVADA COMMERCIAL VEHICLE HANDBOOKTrucking in NevadaDirector’s MessageSafe and simple! That’s our travel goal for all Nevadamotorists. But it means more to people who earn their livinghauling the goods that we use every day.Here are a few special safety tips for driving in Nevada: Take the time to stop and rest while traveling this bigstate. Driver fatigue accounts for a sizeable portionof the crashes here. Watch the roads for fatigueddrivers in other vehicles too. Slow down through the urban areas in Las Vegasand Reno. Often the drivers and pedestrians in thesecities are tourists who are unfamiliar with the area.Also, in the city watch for drivers who run red lights. Check and adjust your brakes before travelingNevada’s mountainous terrain. Although betterknown for its vast deserts, Nevada has 51 mountainpeaks above 9,000 feet. Be prepared for winter storms in northern Nevada.Nevada means, “snow-capped” in Spanish. Be on the lookout for high-wind conditions that canpop up nearly anywhere or any time. We may havesnow in the mountains but we’re still mostly desert.How simple is trucking in Nevada? Generally, Nevadahas fewer restrictions on trucking than other states. Forreducible loads, we allow a number of trailer combinations,including triples. For non-reducible loads, we offer efficientpermitting that will get your load to its destination, whileminimizing the impact to our roads and bridges.Our commercial enforcement efforts include a mobileIII

2004 NEVADA COMMERCIAL VEHICLE HANDBOOKPrePass unit. This unit allows many of the nation’sPrePass customers to bypass our inspection stations. Otherimprovements for truck enforcement are being developedunder a national plan called Intelligent TransportationSystems for Commercial Vehicle Operations.Finally, we are proud ofNevada’s high-quality pavement.Our roads are among the nation’sbest. We hope you find yourtravel here safe, simple -- andsmooth.Jeff Fontaine, P.E.Director, Nevada Department ofTransportationIV

(Also referred to as a divisible load.)Example: Gravel.Non-Reducible Load – A load that cannot be reduced inlength, width or height. (Also referred to as a non-divisibleload.)
