Gotta LOVE Canada's length restrictions. Can the Massachusetts length limit of 33' be right?

Very nice site indeed

What they have there for British Columbia, seems correct though really minimum on info.

The max length for a recreational vehicle is 41'6"
& 103" wide. This means a 45' can't be registered as an RV. There are driver licence requirements for combination vehicles over 10,000 Lbs.

Out of Province tourists can get away with permits to exceed lengths.

I assume that is how one gets through Mass..

Most interesting is the words used.

**BASIC REQUIREMENTS - Breakaway system required over on every towed vehicle 3,000 lbs or more.

Is on some states laws , but trailer is mentioned on others.

Since a car in tow is being trailed , would that make it a trailer?

Any Liar's For Hire , in the house?

IF a car being towed , is in trail legally , I would presume to guess 95% of this board are illegal.
I chose a VW Rabbit to get around this problem , but some folks need Hum Vees to get a 6 pack.
