[offshore]

AS I have said on a few threads and the thread in the NC forum.
The problem in NC is that none of the agencies are on the same sheet of music. If you call the DMV they will tell you one thing, the State police will tell you another, the dept of Transportation will tell you something different and local police dont really care. So how can you obey the law when none of the agencies above can give you a consistant answer. I received three different answers when I bought my truck and was putting tags on them so who knows what is correct. Go try digging through the laws and try to figure it out. No wonder no one can give you a straight answer.
If this was a safety matter they would be stopping everyone checking for brakes, safety chains, lights, or the guy with the S10 pulling a piece of crap single axel trailer with a 5000lb boat. But this is not the case. They are targeting those they think should have a weighted tag and then fining them...........Mark
So tell me if a recreational Boat is a wide load you cannot trailer it at night or on Sundays so how are you suposed to get it home. Take a three day trip to fish one day?? Dosent make any sense at all. And this does not apply to camping trailers they dont need a wide load permit if they are over width according to what I have read. And why arent SUVs required to get a weighted tag that seems to be the safest thing I have heard in a while??..Mark
