I ran into a real life consquence of the steel tariffs

I hauled dismantled and mangled bridge beams from freeway reconstruction to a scrap yard a decade ago (80,000 pound gross vehicle weight). They had a camera positioned to take a photo of the front of the truck and me as I checked in on the scale. I was on the ground outside at a window checking in and they would tell me when to turn to look at the camera. They did the same when I weighed out empty - for whatever reason.
.

Most yards will do that, again, mostly because of copper and aluminum thefts,
Nobody bothers about the steel, today, it is too cheap, not worth the effort.
We have to get rid of our metal scrap and nobody wants to touch iron part of it, we have to make package deals.

It has absolutely nothing to do with tariffs....
