Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / transport | | German term or phrase: Sondertransport | large out-of-gauge consignment shipped with police escort on the road. What are the words that normally appear on the vehicle itself or on the police escort vehicle to warn other drivers? I know there is "wide load" but the thing I have is long and high too !!!
