If you are a wandering RVer driving a big rig or towing a large fifth wheel around the country, knowing the top allowable speed is not enough, you also need to know the rules for towing, including overall length, number of vehicles you can tow, and other pertinent rules.
It is not as easy as it sounds, since there are no federal rules that govern such things. Every state has its own set of laws, but fortunately Towing World assembled the information you need to know before you enter a new state with its chart of Towing Laws Listed by State that lists combined towing widths for two vehicles and triple tows, widths and heights allowed, safety chain and breakaway requirements, tow speeds, and much more.
Every RVer that tows should have a printout of this chart or as a bookmark on the computer.
