Several states have this law but I have only heard of one instance where it was enforced. Think it was N.H. or Vermont.
While the hitch will protect your truck and most people are of the mind set that if someone rear ends me; who cares how banged up the other guys car is; they do negate the crush zone built into stock bumpers.

The next law you may see is where they enforce bumper height from roadway on these raised 4 wheel drive trucks. This is real dangerous because the car drives under the truck and the first thing to make real contact can be the windshield of the car hitting the rear bumper of the pickup.
