3.4.2 - Road Travel and Vehicle Safety

Perform a pre-trip vehicle inspection and obey state and federal DOT guidelines. Check vehicle

maintenance records to assure any needed maintenance has been performed. Pre-operate equipment before

leaving for the site and be familiar with operator's manual. Leave early, practice defensive driving, and

observe the speed limit.

• Drill rigs are top-heavy:

o Maneuver highway ramps or tight curves at a slow and safe speed, avoid quick lane changes.

o Allow a safe distance between you and the vehicle ahead and use your turn signals.

o Know the traveling height of your equipment.

o Secure any load(s) properly.

o Inspect trailer and hitch, safety chains, wiring connectors, lights, and brakes, if applicable.

• While traveling to and from the site observe the following:

o Move disabled vehicle off the road and set out flares and reflectors or cones, and leave

trouble lights on and flashing.

o Never work under a vehicle unless steps have been taken to prevent it from rolling. In

addition to setting the parking brake, use chock blocks or other methods to secure the vehicle

to prevent movement.

o Never leave mobile equipment unattended unless the controls are placed in gear or the Park

position and the parking brake is set. When parked on a grade, chock the wheels or turn them

into the bank.

o Allow for mast overhang when cornering or approaching other vehicles or structures.

o Do not operate trucks 1-ton and above unless equipped with automatic backup alarms.

o Wear seatbelts at all times as driver or passenger when the vehicle is in motion

3.4.3 - Transporting Drill Rigs

When transporting a drill rig onto and off of a drilling site, follow these procedures:

• Verify all measurements of the drill rig with carrier including the traveling height (overhead clearance),

width, length, and the highway and bridge load, width and overhead limits. Allow adequate margins, it

is your responsibility to verify they are not exceeded.

• Prior to moving a drill rig, check to verify that the brakes are in reliable working order.

• When cornering or approaching other vehicles or structures remember to allow room for the mast

overhang.

• Keep in mind that the drill rig mast is often too tall to clear the canopies of service stations and other

facilities, even in the travel position

• Monitor low hanging electrical lines, particularly at the entrances to drilling sites, restaurants, motels, or

other commercial sites.

• When traveling on a street, road, or highway, the mast of the drill rig must

be completely lowered.

• If the rig is being left unattended, remove all ignition keys.

• Passengers are not allowed to ride on the drill rig

• Use caution when driving equipment with a high center of gravity, such as a portable drill rig. Allow for

the increased and higher weight by making turns slowly and allowing for a greater stopping distance

than normally needed.

• Always know where your helper or driller is. Never move the drill until they are accounted for.

• Establish, learn, and use the proper signals when moving a drill rig.

• Never move the drill rig with the mast up- even short distances.
