53' Spread

MY dad has a 53' reefer with a 11' spread that does not slide. Was just wondering in what states is it legal. He got it to run apples in Michigan but now he is looking to run other areas and was wondering if he is going to run into any issues with the trailer not being legal in some states. California I know for a fact wont allow it so I just need some others that might pull him off the road for pulling it.

 

Yea im from cali and I know for a fact that its a load of bull manure, he was just out there on vacation and he stopped in at a weigh station and asked the officer on duty that question, if he could pull his 53' spread on california highways. Well needless to say that the officer told my dad that he needed to tell him if the trailer was in california or not and that if it was he was going to be ticketed and needed to contact a flatbed company with oversized/overwieght permits to haul it to the state line. My dad said thanks and walked out of the building the officer came out and told him to tell him were the trailer was at, with an attitude at this point. My dad told him it was a home and the he got into his rental and started driving away. Well the officer got in his cruiser and pulled him over about 3 miles from the station because he was "speeding", he was doing 2 over the limit, Office took 1 look at his licence handed it back to him and let him go, no warning no ticket no mention of him speeding just wanted to check his home address.
