GCWR compliance - educate me please
In order to be compliant with your GCWR do you just have to scale less than the GCWR or as I think I read somewhere GCWR = sum of truck GVWR and trailer GVWR and it doesn't matter how much you scale? ...
Forum Discussion
also, as noted by some, your paid for gvwr/gcwr must be over what you weigh in at, when scaled but the local weight LEO in a scale house, or a portable scale units. Then you must also be under the mandated max mentioned above, to avoid damage to the road bed itself. THAT is the engineer designed spec that LEO's must enforce. They are not supposed to enforce the manufactures warranty numbers per the door sticker on your vehicles. If they do, and it is below the "Federal Bridge Law" numbers, I have mentioned, then that state could lose any and ALL federal funding for roads! That is mentioned in wa States RCW 45.xx.xx which is this states weight laws.
