It's not a myth, below is a link directly from the BC government website.

about 1/2 way down the page:

Motor Vehicle Act Regulations in B.C. prohibit the operation of vehicles that are unsafe or improperly loaded and exceed either the Gross Axle Rating (GAWR) or the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). These regulations apply to recreational towing, utility towing and boat towing.

BC GVWR FAQ

I still think most people would be ok as it still has to 'look' overloaded before they will do anything and there just don't seem to be that many cases of it happening.

If it did though it could be a real hassle.

Both clicky links lead to a info sheet and is exactly the ones those haulers were joking about floating around rv websites. The info sheet clicky isn't anything regulatory. If you notice down at the bottom of the sheet it says ;
**Information on this Info sheet is subject to
change without notice. In the event of
conflict with this Info Sheet and the Motor
Vehicle Act and Regulations, the
Acts and Regulations shall apply**

Now go to Motor vehicles Acts and Regulations which is what I posted above IE;....... the sum of the trucks GAWRs can be the trucks new gvwr.

Agree dot isn't about to weigh a non commercial vehicle just because. However they can weigh any vehicle on the road if they so choose.
