What in the actual f***!!!!!!!
i think the "or" should have been an " and". "safety chains and brakes", if this is the actual written law. cause anybody holding onto safety chains in the cab, trying to control an out of control trailer, would be a treat to witness, like trying to control the reigns of a horse while sitting in front of it? i called the nd dot, to get an interpretation, see if they call back. a safety chain invention, that attaches to each side of the front of the trailer, an they stay equal an tight, during forward motion but when going into a turn, they slack off, for room to turn. that would saves thousands of wrecks, if done properly. maybe its out there, but to daunting a task to be controlled by a driver.
It is odd. Wonder if it has to do with farm equipment since it mentions towing over 25 mph.I don't see how that could be correct. Safety chains are not optional regardless of brakes or no brakes.
But the retailer has a legal obligation to note if the trailer (or whatever vehicle) is not street legal (ie side by sides state in many places "not legal for use on public highways" or some such language). Trailer brakes are required when the GVW of the trailer can exceed what a vehicle rated at towing that GVW can not adequately and safely stop.
