Re: [RC] Endurance trucks - Bette Lamore

Yes, Karen
And I don't care what the conditions are. I was in traffic going 70+ mph and I went 60 with my trailer and got a ticket (and had to spend a day in traffic school to erase it--- what a bore!!) so do not speed with a trailer in CA no matter what--- also he got me for having a chain that was too light. I explained that it came on the trailer and he replied that all dealerships sell trailers with the cheapest chains--- not heavy enough and that those little trucks with CHP tattooed on them spend all day looking for infractions of trailer laws--- he let me slide on that one but he said the trucks wouldn't have so beware. CA is hurting for money now-- I would expect a LOT more tickets are going to be written up now.
Now if Arnie gets elected, they may just terminate us if we break a law! ;-)

Heidi,

I was under the impression, at least in California, that no matter what
speed limits were posted, that anyone
hauling a trailer had to stick to 55 MPH....

So, does this mean you haul at 70MPH?


Only if the conditions warrant. But yes, many of our freeways in the west
have speed limits of 75 mph, and anyone traveling much slower constitutes


a


hazard. I pretty much run what the truckers run. One more reason why one
needs a sound rig with sufficient substance, power, and braking


ability....


The only states that I travel that have lower freeway speeds are Oregon


and


California--at least, California's is posted slower--the reality is
sometimes different!
