Towing regulations
A lot of states have length regulations on trailers. Has anyone had issues while pulling a 40+ foot rig through a state that has a 40 foot max law?

I can't speak to all states but I can tell you that Maryland has rules for combinations over 55'.
So, my guess is that it depends on the state.

Noncommercial power unit and travel trailer combination may be up to 65 feet BUT anything over 55 feet is required to be on specific routes:
1. Interstate system
2. State routes considered authorized "truck routes"
3. Shortest practical route between designated highways and:
a. point of origin and destination on a particular day.
b. for a distance not to exceed 1 mile, facilities for food, fuel, repairs or rest.
Transportation article 24.104.1.m
So, my guess is that it depends on the state.
