Overall length in California

Bill,

I think you're right it's only on the passengers side. Well that shoots my theory. I'll come up with another line of bs, just give me a few moments.

Unless a flat fee has been established by the governing body of that road, bridge, etc, the charges are usually based on weight, not whether it is a commercial vehicle or private vehicle. The more you weigh the more you pay.

I'm the guy trying to make the jail break from CA if/when I ever get the trailer loaded. I don't have anything relevant to chime in with. I just thought I would practice making a post that wasn't too long and bored people to tears.

I did it !

Nice job Jeff! A masterful short post

I would leave under cover of deep darkness, plan it for when there is no full moon, and make sure you have a tailwind!

thanks JJ.
now that i think about it, the PC emblem is usually seen by the door on the starboard side, as opposed to being under the drivers window on the port side. MM, you goin' thru the toll booth backwards or am i confused?

(MM-you goin' to myrtle beach? if you get to the far SE corner of SC, theres a good place to stop outside savannah recommended by K&E.)

cheers,

Bill, you could probably put on on the port side, but then it would be backwards.

Sorry, couldn't resist !

Joe: I am only guessing here but it could be cause I have to jump on and off sometimes to work a little in between times.

There is one on the drivers side just about like it except the letters run correct.

The following is an email from my cousin, Edward "Jimmy" Gaidry.


Tuga: I am sending you in info I obtained from Tropper Mitchell. If you want I can get you a copy of the La. Statutes. I am still looking for a federal statutes that would say something. This is a good start. Merry Christmas and may God bless you, Karen and the family. Jimmy

State Statute mirrors the Federal requirements and they are enforced on a State level.. LRS 32:382 states the length of a single vehicle (RV) cannot exceed 45 feet. The length of the trailing unit shall not exceed 30 feet.

This would be the standard lengths in most states although some others may allow for longer. All the length statutes are in 32:382 to 32:385.

The following is from LRS 32:282

Sportsmen coaches or vehicles obviously used solely for recreational purposes and registered therefor may tow a combination of no more than two vehicles and shall not exceed seventy feet in total length.

There seems to be a conflict: RV 45 + Trailing unit 30 = 75' total length

Later in the Revised Statues it is stated that no more than two vehicles shall not exceed seventy feet in total length.

Looks to me like since 70 is the lesser of the two lengths; California and other states can not legally enforce the 65' length.

Stay tuned!
