I happened to come upon two sheriff officers having stopped two Meeks Lumber vehicles on Hwy 112 (aka Garland Ave). I cannot really tell why they were stopped.
Apologies for the coughing. my allergies were getting to me.
At the end of the video, I pull around to see the one officer JUST getting out of his vehicle to go into the store.
I wonder if there is a way to see if an officer has run an unwarranted tag report on a person.....
I have my entrance and exit on my dashcam, but my dashcam and my camera software don't play well together. Not worth uploading separately this time.

    Those are not Sheriff's Deputies. They are the Arkansas State Police and they were probably checking compliance with Load Safety.

    The load is sticking too far off the back of the truck. 3 to 4 inches is all that's allowed to hang off. I used to drive a lumber truck and just the red flag doesn't negate the over hang. I had a boss 1 time wanted me to deliver a LVL beam that was over hanging by 17 feet, I told him it was unsafe, he said put a bunch of red flags on it, I told him I needed a truck to follow me or he could do it. He had a pickup truck follow me so I could make the delivery.

    The person who made this video is pathetic, get a hobby. And no those aren't sheriff, or state police. They are department of transportation. Also the unless something hangs over more than 4ft it isn't required by law to have a red flag. I believe the commentators are about as knowledgeable as the video taker. By the way nobody was detained either, just another traffic stop by dot!
