Default Cobra Trailer Tow Chain Attach Points

My guess is that, as long as you're compliant with the laws of the state
in which the trailer is registered, you'll be OK just passing through or
visiting. Too bad it's not the same for speed limits (think California
where you have to drop 20 mph when towing a trailer). But I never
played a lawyer on TV, either.

When in doubt, go to your state DOT website and see what is required.

Thanks for that link! I had no idea that there was such a bewildering variety of regulations.
So what is one to do while on a trip from one state that has hardly any requirements through one that requires QE2 style anchor chains? Could one get cited for violating that state's laws?
