A guy just went by in a super sleeper with a 53 dry van with his tandems set at like 42 feet.
I'm in California.
I didn't have time to flag him down.
This guy obviously didn't get that truck by being a moron.
Is there a way to circumvent Californian's 40 foot law?
Can he buy a permit?
Thanks

if the trailer was a 48’ obviously the 40’ doesn’t apply. -
So, after pondering this over my Cracker Barrel breakfast,
it would be possible to load a non divisible load requiring the protection of a 53’ trailer and have it distribute weight such that you would need to run the axles farther back than 40’. This would require oversize permits but I guess would be technically possible. But never seen it actually done.Cattleman84, stwik, feldsforever and 6 others Thank this. -
