Here is what he said: the law does state you need 2 sets of white sheets in your truck but the blanket or comforter or quilt can be what ever color. Reason being is if you come up on an accident and need to cover a body. You will be ticketed by some DOT officers that are out to prove themselves to be big shots otherwise most don't care. My father has driven trucks for 40 years. So you can take what he told me or you can leave it, I don't really care. Like most things this can be argued til the end of time and everyone will have a difference of opinion. That what makes the world go round. :-)
