    Define right at….11 and 15/16 inches or 12 and an 1/8 it makes a difference…I will say right at to me says it was legal.

    Lol, he pushed on the bulge a couple times looking at it curiously and moved on. I believe technically he could write it up as a dimensional violation like your mudflap. Trailer was almost brand new, was early Sunday morning and the officer wasn’t the ball busting type.
     
    Feedman and hope not dumb twucker Thank this.
