Just what is the deal with driving in different states? I can't seem to find consistancy on the internet as to what are the state requirements. i thought that rules of licensing state apply. What about break away requirements?
I believe that RVer's visiting or traveling through a state with more stringent laws than the state the vehicle is registered in are exempt from that states requirements. That said, having a breakaway breaking system on your towd just makes good sense.
They are not required in Oregon, but they are in California; so I am installing a break away breaking system, probably Add-a Brake.
Wow!! Good find Bumbee!! That's going to make me re-think Camping World!!
thank you. what i really like about the system is how it works... inertia. a simple mechanical design; doesn't drain the towd's battery; don't have to set up a clunky box in the towd. i'm surprised no one found it before me!
As the manufacturer of the Smart Trailer USA, we've researched the brake laws, as best we could, and came to the decision that we would include electric brakes on our trailers regardless of the laws. That way our customers will be safe, covered, protected, whatever the law may say.
And, yes, we decided to eat the cost, something we are proud of.
If you want surge brakes (hydraulic), we offer those as an option.
