I'm all for obeying the law. However, vague laws are vague for a reason. The reason is money. Has nothing to do with saftey. I see gross saftey violations everytime I drive. As with alot of issues the true spirit of the law (saftey) is sometimes cloulded by the letter of the law in order to generate revenue. If you are after saftey, then start with the companies that make trailering tires that blow every 5k miles. Trailer manufacturers that will sell a product with the knowledge that the product is too light duty for the purpose intended. The loads heading to the swap meet that are secured in an unsafe manner. The saftey chains that wouldn't keep my dog from breaking them. The customers that seek out these products because they are cheaper. The junk steel balls at the discount store.........etc. That would be too much WORK. Its easier to see the big rig racing outfit that is figured they have some expendable income so they are much easier game. One again, racers need to stick together on this one.........but we know from past experience that this won't happen. My thanks to all that have called or written the depts. of tourism and attended meetings on this subject.
