Here is the irony, how many people think they are in compliance and are not?
Just because I said DOT regulations may not apply to non commercial vehicles towing private loads, not for hire and not going across state lines, doesn't mean I don't believe the LAWS OF PHYSICS have been appealed by the supreme court either. They apply to everyone.
