There is lots of posts to do with weights and ratings etc. etc.
Has anyone ever been stopped and weighed by enforcement authorities while towing an rv?
Appears THIS particular thread was started by 06Fargo.....
Don't recollect anyone that I can think of that has been pulled over or ticketed for possibly having their TV overloaded.....never seen it.
Believe most of the weight post are more about, "Can I tow this?" type question...It's rare anyone asked if anyone has ever been pulled over for being over weight, or has there been any wrecks due to one being over weight....I've never seen it....Again, It's about when someone poses the question or ask about being able to tow a certain something with an "X" truck...That's when the weight questions come out, and most who have been on these forums for years know that's exactly how it's brought up...
IMO its best to ask your sate size and weights folks directly how they enforce weighing for a non commercial overloaded vehicle and what criteria they use to determine a overload condition of private use vehicles.
The OP question and answers comes from just a handful of RV folks on just one RV website so not much in the way of what goes down in the rest of the world to draw any conclusion.
The OP question was a simple yes or no type question but got hyjacked from us usual participants :B.
