The worst part is that they also vote.

Could be straps were the easiest way to keep the 2x4 retainers in place? Nah....that's too logical. KenN

Lawyers are VERY smart people who know a lot more about things than you do. Especially government lawyers who write regulations. Just ask 'em, they'll tell you.

The straps are to hold down the 4X4 boards that are there to stop the material from falling off the edge of the trailer!

I've hauled many a load of rock for short distances on a flatbed truck.
The tie-downs held the 4x4s or 6x6s in place to contain the load and the timbers were easily removeable so that the rock could be pushed off or drug off the side of the truck where needed.
