While I prefer to get info from official sites here is one and its info on nc appears to be correct.

Looks like I was right about OR.

Well, I wouldn't count on that site for accuracy - it says that Triple Towing is not allowed in Colorado, and it is!

Also, never understood why some folks call it triple towing - It is Double Towing if you are towing two trailers. Now we do see a lot of triples on I-70 here in Colorado - UPS, Fedex and numerous other OTR companies have their semis pulling three trailers. I see them every day.

While none of the sites showing towing laws should be accepted as 100% accurate, I have always found This One to be pretty good. To be 100% you should alwayd contact the DOT for the State in which you are going to travel.

I actually think the site you mentioned is wrong on nc. It says weight on brakes for trailers at 1000 lbs. it's more than that. More like 4000lbs. I believe the 1000 lbs is on house trailers. But trailers in general or anything else towed is 4000 lbs

And I see they call it triple towing too.

The legal defination of towing two trailers with one power unit in most states is called triple towing. And they use a completely different legal defination where it refers to commercial vehicle requiring a CDL that falls under federal law.
