Has anyone been stopped by D.O.T.
Concerned about being weighed. I'm 240 lbs. over gross on truck. Rear tires and axle are just under. Front axle only gained 60 lbs. Fiver axles and tires are fine.

One more CA "thing' that some may not know, and only pertains to
CA registered vehicles and CA licensed drivers.
The Chippies *will* check DLs for the proper endorsement/s for drivers towing heavy trailers (toys inside) which require same.
(Three axles is a dead giveaway! - then just look at the trlr rating plate)
Not in possession of a Class A non-commercial DL, will rate a 'park it' - until a properly licensed driver is located.

True. And it doesn't take much for a TT to be in violation (>10K Lbs GVWR rating of the trailer whether loaded that heavy or not). For a 5th wheel, you have to be over 15k - but CA still requires a class C towing endorsement if GVWR of the trailer is between 10k - 15k.
