While only somewhat true, CA DOES allow RV's over 40' (used to be the law) they still do NOT allow RV's and towed to exceed 65' in length. Does CHP care? If their supervisor tells them to care they will come looking for you as an easy source of income.
CHP's budget comes from registration fees, not ticket revenue. They do not write tickets for the money.
Of course they do. As a former police officer who had a ticket "quota" I can tell you that writing tickets is a huge money maker for every jurisdiction. Why would a cop want to stop an RV to measure its length when speeders and DUI drivers abound. There's really only one reason.....Someone has chosen to target that situation and I promise you it was not the cop in the car.
