Ask your boss, see what he says (then get it in writing!)
By the way, do you hook up the trailer light cord when you go plant-to-plant? I rarely see yard horses even having a light cord (much less using one).

I asked the bossman about that, he pretty much said not to worry about it. That doesn't say much if I'm breaking the laws or not. He did say the only thing I would need to worry about getting stopped for is going down the road with the doors open thats just common sense not to do. I don't want to risk one of the doors unlatching and hitting a car parked on the side of the road, or better yet one flying off with the break away hinges.
Anyway, we do have a 3 cord policy, we hook up both airlines and the pigtail even if we move a trailer ten feet or 2 docks over etc... All the horses are licensed for #80,000 even though we can't really gross that with a single axle. Two of the horses are the extended frames and they have tag axles on them but there only rated for #8,000.
