Double Towing in NC

The quick and dirty guide I checked said no.
But the final authority is your state authorities, if making certain you have the right answer is important, check with them.

yeah is kinda a odd thing but I was hoping it would be just the length of everything combinded but Guess I will be looking at making a phone call. Thanks for the Look out.

I've towed in North Carolina several times with my SmartTrailer, which is a type of swivel wheel trailer. I never got stopped or checked out. We have been out there staying to ride the roads in the area.

However, as you may know YMMV.

does anyone know if there are restrictions in the state of NC about towing doubles, im looking at hooking up a jet ski trailer behind the 5th wheel and don't seem to see anything about it being a law.

you could check with your local RV dealer as well. Most have a copy of the towing laws as they apply to RVs/.

The dealer I used, looked in his book, and told us NC did not allow it.

Technically, its not allowed in most states along the east coast; including NC. But that being said, I've seen it from time to time here in the Raleigh area along I-40 and on I-95.

Towing something small like a Jetski or a grill would probably be let slide. Most troopers have better things to do here but you never know.

Biggest I've ever seen though was a ski boat behind a fifth wheel on Hwy. 64 just outside of Knightdale.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts on this, I will look into it closer.

It just occurs to me that I didn't make it very clear that the SmartTrailer was being towed behind a 34' Big Sky 5th wheel. Just clarifying.

I was told that I could pull my camper and boat at the same time as long as neither of them were over 29ft. I see it all the time because of where I live so I wanted to know what the "law" is.
