Before you attach anything to a hitch, make sure you understand the basics for personal truck towing like payload and towing limits so you can avoid fines and civil lawsuits.
You may think those only apply to commercial operators such as semi truck drivers and you’d be wrong. Police officers can enforce the same laws on towing limits on personal vehicles as well. The laws aren’t specific to just commercial vehicles.
Plus, lawyers can take negligent owners to court for overloading their trucks much the same way commercial trucking companies face lawsuits for accidents. There’s no legal difference.
The fact is you are legally responsible for knowing the limits of your truck much like a commercial operator.
