Like I said - how can ya argue with that rationale!?
ok guys..argue this .....
explain why the CA department of motor vehicles, and CHP, have maximum weight limit rule exceptions for fixed equipment boom vehicles to legally be registered and drive on the highways when they are clearly over the engineered approved maximum front axle weight limits?
I can't count the times when I got red-lighted in scales and had to get out and remind these newb CHPs of the front axle weight limit exceptions for truck mounted cranes..( and, of course they would look it up ) and then let me go after a severe paperwork check.
fuel tankers also have max weight exceptions because of the changes in loaded cargo weight.
please don't be scared people.. there are many, many commercial trucks out there (the same chassis as many motorhomes) legally driving around right next to you, most of them are absolutely maxed out for profit , and some (a lot) are overweight..
hopefully they are being driven by real professional drivers and not weekend RV drivers.
