FYI - California owners

I noticed that a few of the folks that made comments about this topic are listed as being from California. May I suggest that you take a look at the two links that I listed below?
I doubt that very many of our CHP officers know about the weight restrictions or about the endorsement that is required. I KNOW that you will have to find someone at DMV who is willing to find the proper procedure to add the over 10k but less than 15k restriction 41 to your license. No, I did not make a typo, once you cut through all of the garbage at DMV you will find out that it is really called a restriction, not an endorsement. The number is D41.

After saying all of that, why am I concerned about having it on my license? It might become very important if you have a accident and have to defend yourself in court. Just maybe the other person’s attorney will know about it and challenge your right to be towing your large 5th wheel trailer without the proper license.
