permit for totor into california

[Tony Janes]

I think permits are for commercial vehicles only.

Maybe Mike Cotton will chime in, I believe he has experience with the
California DOT on this subject......

From the DMV:

5401. (a) No vehicle combinations may exceed a total length of 65 feet.

That is the same limit you would see in most states unless you are commercial. Here is the Texas limits:

From a COMMERCIAL vehicle perspective, there is no length limit on the interstates, as long as your trailer does not exceed 53 feet AND the kingpin to center of the rearmost axle is 40 feet or less. We only have trouble when we get off the interstate, and then in most cases, we are limited to 65 feet.

I know there are a lot of toters running around CA that are longer than 65 feet. I'd call the California Highway Patrol and ask before I skipped a race. Know your dimensions when you call. You might be fine.
