These types of questions are like getting online and asking the general public if you should have a colonoscopy because your ____ hole feels a little different this morning.
How the ____ would we know unless we live in YOUR ____ hole (or Ontario)? Lol
So fair enough to ask the question and hope someone from your ____ hole knows the answer.
BUT, why would the rest of your talk about your own ____hole when the OP is asking about his ____ hole, which is different than yours?
(Unless you know about his ____ hole, or Ontario in this case.)
It's interesting to see how regulations vary across the country.
Local DOT don't separate commercial and personal use towing when it comes to vehicle registration. They're telling me that the combined weight is what should be reported for registration. Because of the truck GVW alone, I have to sign a declaration of personal use to avoid CVOR rules.
I can increase my registered weight for those months that I'm towing (about 23,000lbs) and revert back to just the truck GVW (11,500lbs) when not towing. This is all to follow the letter of the highway traffic act in Ontario Canada.
All that being said, I don't know anyone who does this and have never seen a RV pulled over to be weighed. I have heard of it happening but don't know the outcome.
