Hauling cars trucks and tractors with a UHAUL rig - DOT stuf

Posted by denglish on September 12, 2016 at 08:49:49 from (156.26.121.128):

After reading rockyridgefarm's post about getting stopped by DOT in Iowa, I wondered about the times I pulled a UHAUL car trailer. How does that work with respect to OTR rules? How come I can rent a UHAUL car trailer, pop a car or truck on there and just take off with no special license, log-book, etc? Does DOT give UHAUL equipment exemptions with respect to log-books and such?

I've hauled cars and trucks on UHAUL several times across many state lines. In 2015, I hauled a Farmall A tractor from eastern NC to central KS in one day on a UHAUL car trailer. I guess I drove about 15 hours straight without any interaction with DOT or any law officers (or any breaks). Did I break a bunch of laws or was I small enough that I was exempt? After reading about Rockyridefarm's encounter, I would be very nervous to do that trip again.
