Dinghy brakes or not?
I'm hesitant about this topic because I will probably get lectured but I'm wondering how many of you flat tow with no supplemental brakes? My situation is a 30 ft motor home towing a 2700 lb. Chevy So...

I thought somebody posted in this thread that CA had reciprocity, required out of state vehicles to meet home state braking system requirements. can't find it however. That sort of makes sense, as when you travel across the states the requirements could change every 400 miles.
But since we don't seem to be able to agree on the requirements, how do we expect the LEO to know them for 49 other states, or do they just cite you for it and let the courts decide?
but that brings up an interesting issue, Mowermech points out that NC has a requirement for a braking system. If you are driving a NC registered RV/toad combo that does NOT have a braking system installed, and are pulled over in a state that does NOT require one, shouldn't they claim since your combo is illegal in the licensed/registered/home state you can be cited for not having one?
