Farm or commercial it's illegal to combine 2 items together to make a oversized load, width, height, length, it doesn't matter.

You can pull your 11' wide mower conditioner or folded planter down a road with no issues, but 2 5' wide bales on the wagon or trailer making the load 10' wide is a no no.

I had one neighbor that hauled his big 6x6 bales side by side on a bale wagon running 30 mph down local roads, if you meet him he'd run you off the road or hit you mirror and scratch the side of you vehicle. One larger farmer here would pull two 38 ft wagons loaded with 6x6 bales side by side unstrapped behind his 3/4 ton pickup down the only main highway in this area, he only drove 20 mph but in the 15 miles he traveled he never pulled off the let traffic by, one time when I got behind him by the time he turned off to go to his farm traffic was backed up over a mile behind him. No way he could have stopped those wagons in a emergency.

DOT has finally started cracking down on wide loads of hay around here and we're seeing more inline trailers
