supplemental braking and out of state
hi, i live in a state that does not require supplemental braking systems on a towed vehicle. regardless on how one feels about the need for them my question is what is the law if you drive in...

Finally, keep this in mind: The 700lb U-Haul tow dolly has no brakes and is 50 state legal with a 4,300lb car or lighter.

AMEN to that!!! Never made any sense to me that when I towed my Toyota "Avalon" on a dolly, I had NO legal requirement to have any kind of braking system at all. Keep in mind that the dolly also had a very simple 5,000lb rated ball hitch! However, to legally tow my Jeep "Liberty," they want 10,000 capacity towing systems, braking, break-away braking, separate tail lights, etc....
Seems like overkill to me....
