The adoption includes regulations dealing with projecting loads (393.87) and cargo securement (Part 393, Subpart I).
Part 393 applies to drivers and motor carriers operating intrastate vehicles and combinations of vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating, gross combination weight rating, gross vehicle weight, or gross combination weight of 26,001 or more pounds, and any size or type of vehicle used to transport hazardous materials requiring placarding.
