Name your favorite regulation!

There used to be a regulation that stated a driver must perform his duties in a professional and workmanship like manner. That one could be brought back.

 

Thats only 33,360 so even without a spread axle you would have been ok. You are actually allowed 36,000 on the tandems in CO.

 

Please relay that back to the CDOT......

Now let's see what happens when I go through Trinidad and Monument next week.....
I have a special VIN # on both sides for CDOT....
It reads: CO VIN XXXXXXXX......
I'm sure they'll probably want it underlined or something else to nit-pick....

 

Sounds like you are dealing with a first class Richard Cranium!

Bet I know one international sign language sign that is often used after a driver receives his or her citation....

 

I would gladly, and bring coffee, go through a checkpoint daily to enforce this one.

 

This is an easy answer. None of them!
