Police escorts are required when a state believes that a civilian escort is insufficient to ensure the load moves safely through the jurisdiction. Some states will not allow civilian escorts to control traffic, requiring state police to shut down intersections. The number of state police required for a particular move is frequently specified by the state permitting office, but can also be defined by state’s district offices. OSOW carriers often bid jobs as a cost plus police cost because they are often unaware how many police escorts will be required.
