yeah it is pretty restrictive, but like I said originally, some states are starting to enforce it too, mainly I believe Arizona and california, combination of all the sno birds hauling monster three axle 5ers, and Familys with Three axle toy hualers, and river rats with three axle off shore boats heading that way, and too many wrecks in recent years, and all the extra wear and tear on the roads, so they are starting to enforce it alot more, however I dont know of any one here that has ever been ticketed for it, my tickets I mentioned before were in a comercial truck at a scale house, all I was saying is yeah if your in a accident it could come up if the police catch it. just kind of a gamble there dont you think. And yeah there really is no other way to read it for a standard class C licence it clearly states, "Loaded" Trailer weight of 10,000 pounds, meaning my camper has a 12500 pound GVWR tag on the side, but empty and Dri tanks, and cleaned out I have a UVWR (Unloaded Vehicle Weight Ratio) less than 10,000 you can find this on a sticker ussually on the inside of a cabinet door in your kitchen for most campers, so by rights a class C could hual my trailer with nothing in it, but if he were speeding (over 55 for truck and vehicles with trailers) here in OR, and the state trooper saw the GVWR on the outside and your class C licence then he may or may not decide to right you a ticket unless you have a current certified scale ticket with you showing the actual weight of the trailer at the time, or show him the sticker in side and that it is emty.
