In need of FL kingpin to rear axel/overweight.

Fla weight limits are different.https://www.flhsmv.gov/fhp/cve/2013TruckingManual.pdf

 

Florida is picky about being 41' or less (kingpin to center of tandems, not to rear axle like where Cali measures to)...you can be up to 40k lbs on your tandems, but don't exceed the 41' bridge.

 

Florida will actually give you 44,000 per tandem. Strict on 80,000 and 41' kingpin to center of tandems. *weight allowed so long as you do not exceed axle or tire ratings.

Pictures below are for Florida roads as well as interstate roads. This is in the front of your rand McNally atlas. Hope ya learned something here today..

 

Read this response ASAP^^^^^^^^. He is dead on correct. If you were legal anywhere else and have to move your tandem to get Florida legal, go ahead and move them and you should be good.

Luck in battle.

 

that atlas is a very good source of info on truck regs.

 

I’ve been told only a gps is reliable???

 

Seriously doubt that.....

 

never ran one. lol.
still call and ask for directions.
been doing it that way for 35 yrs.

have seen too many drivers get tangled up with them.

 

Sarcasm Sheldon.
