| Abstract | This document contains tables summarizing the basic and most important size and weight limits which generally apply in each State, on the Interstate System and on other non-Interstate State highways. The four tables include 1) Vehicle Weight Limits in normal operation, including "routine" permit limits, 2) Maximum Semitrailer Lengths, 3) Cargo Carrying Length Limits for longer combination vehicles (LCVs), and 4) LCV Weight Limits. The definition of "LCV" used in tables 3 and 4 is that provided by Congress in the ISTEA of 1991; that is, any combination of truck tractor and 2 or more trailers or semitrailers which operates on the Interstate System at a gross vehicle weight greater than 80,000 pounds. |
