Maybe it's different up here in Canada with insurance rules. I've read my insurance agreement in full detail and have read the same for a handful of other insurers available in my area and those policies all say the same thing very clearly... is it different in other areas of the world?
That is for you to decide. From what I e learned if you cause an accident and deemed at fault and given a ticket for being over weight as the source of that accident, yes insurance can deny the claim. I have asked this question and have only seen this done in extreme cases, i.e. The Toyota pickup hauling three tons of rock and had a tire blow out killing people.
Again your choice. I can find almost every truck on the road pulling or carrying and RV to be over sticker weight (here in the US) with the occational exception. Watch the dune folks hit the highway...with a lifted truck on 37's, F250 pulling a 42' toyhauler. Not saying it is right but a lift kit, your aftermarket wheels/tires, bad choice can all put you into "outside" your policy in a bad situation.
Just my two cents.
