Rules of the road
What shapes a move in Oklahoma
- Seasonal conditions
Oklahoma permit rules call for oversize movement to stop when snow, ice, sleet, fog, rain, dust, smoke or excessive wind make travel dangerous, and the state may restrict or prohibit operations in unsafe conditions.
The spring severe-weather season, roughly April to June, brings tornadoes, hail and strong crosswinds on the plains along I-35, I-40 and I-44.
Winter ice storms can make I-35, I-40 and I-44 hazardous for trucks.
Rules change. The specialist on your move checks the current ones for your exact route before anything is booked.
