Remember you are 'talking with my brother-in-law at thanksgiving dinner' Did he offer any references or facts? I have dragged a tow dolly through all the lower 48 and a couple Canadian providences and no one complained. By the way welcome to the forum. Have a safe trip. Where are you headed?

richard5933 Report post Posted November 27, 2021 Perhaps he's talking about some particular type of tow dolly, such as one without brakes. A quick online search shows that tow dolly use is legal in all the lower 48 but there is variance in requirements for brakes, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
