Towing issues / updates

[Bob Hochrun]

Ken. Suggestion; how bout starting a section on class racer for information on towing issues. With all the states trying to generate money this section could come in very handy. Just saying.

I was pulled over in ny on 84 on my way to epping national
haulmark toter and 30ft stacker.Im lucky to get a misrible female trooper
she asked whats in the trailer me being honest says race cars,next thing
follow me to the next exit.she does a full inspect on truck &trailer including
inside trailer.long story short,since they were racecars,entry fees are being
paid and winnings being paid it becomes a federal issue therefore a cdl is
required.also a log book,an medical card.so i waited 4hrs for a friend with a cdl
to come an drive my rig away.so i suggest if ya get pulled over show car in the trailer

I don't think they will fall for that with $150K rig rolling down the road. Pick up and open trailer maybe. They just can't leave the little guy alone.

A towing section is a good idea. Could include road work and potential delays.

Officer please show me a warrant to look in my trailer or motor home/ truck. O by the way Why are you asking to look. Only issue is you are to long. Period

According to this website my RV and 26' tag ( (68') is over the length limit in every state....how do you get around that ..... This is getting crazy ..... Seems like every time there is a race someone we know is getting pulled over ..... I took the competition numbers off my trailer .... That's a dead giveaway for the police
