California in general is not RV friendly in my opinion. 55mph max tow speed and must stay in right hand lane even if slow traffic (Yes, I got 2 tix last year in L.A. area because I went around traffic that was doing about 50, left lane was clear). In AZ such laws are highway/terrain specific. There are mountainous areas that do have speed limit signs for trucks/RV's and signs for such to stay in right lane. Most highways do not have any limitations for RV's.
Probably depends on the CHP officer and maybe some look for that. Like I said, my CHP buddy, who works in L.A. btw, does not. On the big interstates, say 4 or more lanes, you're actually limited to the first two lanes and don't have to stay all the way to the right. As I mentioned, I always go 60-63 mph and have never had a problem in 10 years, but they would write me if they wanted. You right, you can go faster in most other states, but the limitations of ST trailer tires keep me in the 60-63 mph range.
