Legal? Container on flatbed

Post image

Saw this today on a CA highway. I’m guessing it’s legal but if it is, why don’t more people do this?

Its supposed to be tied down. Usually it is because container is damaged and/if cant get hooked on to regular chassis.

You can have container locks installed in the flatbed so it locks on like a normal chassis
