Hey Crazy, was that just from Van to Vic? Where did the trip start and end? Did they at least give you a free bar of soap or a tattoo?

I believe I just phone the nearest scales and they sent me one through email I printed out. or they directed me to the place (phone #) that issued the permits....
in any event i've always done it oveer the phone. last time in the US I did it that way also... as long as you have the file saved on your cell phone email or txt that should be OK also...

Hook in up is right with permit, don't like you towing oversize at night... The ferries don't care about permit they just want your $$$$ it's DOT that wants your permit and they can can cost you huge$$$ if you don't have one .

its not the Ferries you have to worry about, it summer time and the roads are crawling with cvse vehicles,
and you know they will also be tagging trailers with surge brakes and if your oversize chances are you will also require electric or electric over hyd, in either case they must be able to be controlled from the drivers seat if your over a certain weight
