Perfectly valid point....and I wish all of the armchair lawyers on here who are not admitted to practice would quit pontificating on what will or won't happen in a civil lawsuit and what factors will or won't be alleged as causation for the accident.
I personally do not believe the OP was asking about what will happen in a civil suit. THAT court has a LOT of gray from a who can be convicted. ie think about OJ Simpson, not guilty in legal court, guilty in civil court!
From a true legal standpoint, ie an LEO/CVEO as Wadcutter is, they have black and white rules/laws to follow. Some like myself, and others, have to deal with these laws daily. We know and understand them. Would I last a minute in a civil court, probably not a second. Many of those types of attorneys throw stuff on the wall, like spaghetti noodles, what noodles stick, that is what they go after!
As the OP has asked, "has anyone had an overweight ticket in an RV" reality is NO! and probably never will. Unless you end up in Hazard county dealing with Sheriff Pee Coaltrain or how ever his name is said......then all bets are off also.
