solar "wing" on drivers side

mirrors and awnings, do NOT factor into the DOT width limit
as they are 'addon & removable'

For enforcement rule of thumb for us Statey guys, if an item extends past the farthest most portion of an OEM mirror, then it is citable. (After market or extensions won't cut it, so don't even suggest it) Also, if an item is deemed (the opinion of the officer, as presented in court)to be dangerous to the motoring public, it is citable. Example recently, two kayaks attached to the side of a truck camper going down the road of a narrow two lane highway.

PT, make sure you do a walk around, before driving away, to ensure something is not forgotten and when stored, the items is stored securely as it is citable for an item to be unsecured or unsecured in a safe manner. Also, I have mentioned before, smaller panels make it easier to tilt and survive higher wind events.

I like the idea of a group of panels mounted to the side of a camper, and or trailer, to capture even more solar.

Have fun, on your new travels, PT.
