One of the big questions to ask is can you safely stop that trailer within most normal driving cases. You have to drive like your Grandma coming up to a stop sign or light, going down hill and sharp corners or that Big Hog will push you right through a Red light intersection. or over and down a canyon. Do carry about your wife or grandkids with you???
If you are over weight and get in a accident, pulling more than the truck and trailer is designed for; the insurance company can say we will not pay you a dime. You have no coverage! Happened to my neighbors friend in Utah.
Lol, how many times will these stories be told about the friends brother in laws uncle?
Yes, a forum comprised of mostly engineers/lawyers. ;)
My armchair lawyers degree says you can be over weight, plus distracted, and add intoxicated; insurance is still responsible, and will cover this accident.
Burbman states he will weigh rig camp ready. I think he will be GTG. The scaled axles will have final say.
