Modified trailer or manufactured curtainsider?

All I know is, that type of combination is super rare on the east coast. I probably see that kind of combination about maybe 5 or less times a year.

Closest thing to it is this but no curtains: http://www.cottrelltrailers.com/trailer ... r-trailer/

I see one of those parked near I-76 here, though, I know as much about it as you do. :lol: All I really know are that they usually are used with cars inside, and have older cabovers attached to them (the one here looks like an International 9800).

Looks a lot like something you'd find in Europe.

If ya from da UK then yes, but no dat truck is totally legal bruh.
Well, I am from the US (hemse the word Interstate, which only exist in the US) But if you notice, the yellow line is to his right, not his left. That means he is in oncoming.

@bobgrey1997 Actually on the other side of the interstate the yellow line is in the same position. So who knows what was going on in that picture.

I think it may be a part of I70 in Indianapolis where each side of the freeway consists of two separate roadways (4 roadways total). Not sure though... Was just an interesting detail many people seem to miss and I didn't know if I was the only one or not to notice it.

You can also see the driver on the right side of the truck, meaning that the image is most likely mirrored.

Alright, that would line everything up... He would be on the rights side of that line, that sign would be on the right, and it would put the truck, and the sign facing the correct direction! You, I do believe, nailed the mystery of the Oncoming Interstate Driver!
