Pilot Car Services That Satisfy Wyoming DOT Requirements

We confine our Wyoming pilot-car service delivery within the transport regulations in the state. According to Wyoming DOT rules and regulations, any heavy freight over 110' in length will need two pilot cars, one in front and one in the rear. If the shipment measures 14' in width and moves on a two-lane road, it will require one lead escort and another following behind.

Regarding weight, the state's transport department recommends pilot cars after assessing the weight. Our state professionals have provided lead car services for years; they know when the weight warrants escort car deployment. Call now!
