The Good News: You Can Double Down (on Trailers, That Is)
That's right! Unlike some spoilsports of states, Oklahoma allows you to conquer the road with a two-trailer tango. Now, before you envision yourself as the king of the highway, there are a few hoops to jump through (figuratively, please, no actual hoop-jumping with trailers involved).
QuickTip: Read section by section for better flow.
Gearing Up for Greatness: The Trailer Two-Step
It's All About the Weight: Don't get caught in a weigh station walz shame! The combined weight of your vehicle and those two trailers can't exceed 15,000 pounds. Remember: Every cowboy needs to know his (or her) limitations, and that includes your truck's towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to avoid a roadside rodeo.
Length Don't Matter (That Much): While your love for double trailers may be endless, the actual length of your trailer train can't be. The total length, including your awesome towing machine, can't stretch past 65 feet.
Hooked Up on Safety: This ain't amateur hour. Oklahoma demands proper connections for your trailers. We're talking fifth-wheel couplings or drawbars, none of that sketchy bungee cord business. Safety first, friends, always safety first!
Lights, Camera, Action!: Just like Beyonc� at a concert, your trailers need to be all lit up. Functioning brake lights and running lights are a must for avoiding confusion and unfortunate incidents.
No Commercial Capers: Sorry, business owners, this double-trailer fun is reserved for recreational vehicles, pickups, and good ol' fashioned cars. No commercial hauls allowed for this two-trailer trick.
