I remember as a teen in the '60s working at a gas station and watching the the tanker with semi-trailer and pup backing into the lot - I thought it was poetry in motion.
On its face, multiple towing in Ontario is legal, but:
- it must be a commercial motor vehicle and, by definition, a pickup is a commercial motor vehicle.
- it cannot exceed 23m in length
- it cannot exceed 11000kg or the towed vehicles exceed 4600kg on a Class G (standard) licence.
If I were still a road warrior, and just going on the quick video, I would pop this one because:
-it appears he has no clear view to the rear from those standard mirrors
-it appears he is unable to make a visible brake or turn indication (I see no harness between the 2nd and 3rd trailer and both trailers obscure the signals from the Airstream,
-it appears that the third trailer is connected to the UTV cargo of the second trailer, not the trailer itself (and there appear to be no chains). That alone would get the whole thing pulled off the road as being unsafe.
-depending on the class of hitch on the truck, it may be exceeded by the cumulative weights of the towed vehicles.
Or just wait for somebody ahead to touch their brakes and watch this thing go in seven different directions.
Up north, it was not all that uncommon to see two trailers, mostly US hunters/fishers. Never saw three.
