In CA if you are involved in a multi fatal accident on the freeway the CHP MAIT (major accident investigation team) may be called to investigate. They will put all the pieces on a scale and if they determine that being over weight effected your ability to stop (and this is a cause of the accident) you could be cited. If you are grossly overweight manslaughter (causing a death due to negligence) could also come into play (especially if you wiped out several children on a school bus and it became a major story (political.)
This being said I am not aware of any actual criminal cases being filed due to an overweight RV.
