: I am interested in laws concerning what one needs to be legal in mid west states . Do I need safety chains ,brake- away kit, or both? Also can a brake -away malfunction and lock down when it's not suppose to ? Thanks In IL. you need a breakaway kit. If it's a ball hitch, you need chains. You don't with a 5th wheel. I'm not sure what the weight break is, but you'll with a goosneck, the GVW is high enough you have to have a safety inspection. If the pin gets pulled on the breakaway, it will lockup.
