The highways England Code of Practice says:,
Self-escorting offers greater flexibility for scheduling moves and therefore should enable loads to travel at off-peak times when there is less traffic. This both reduces traffic disruption to other road users and improves journey times for the haulier.
Hauliers involved in the movement of abnormal loads have a responsibility to ensure that each movement is conducted in a controlled and safe manner. This shall equally apply if the load is being self-escorted. Some larger and heavier loads are required to have an attendant, as defined in the relevant legislation
