Must be an Ontario thing.. :roll:

Combined vehicle length is a road thing that varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Anything for a jab, eh?

It shows how people adapt in this world they bitch about Walmart taking local business yet the trucks
have to get bigger to accommodate the customers who don't like the Walmart ideal.
Kind of makes society look like a lot of hypocrites live here

There are staging areas (distribution warehouses), where you break up the trailers. From there, they send out single trailer to regional stores.

I wish it was better off, all my family lives in Ontario and I would move back to my birth place in a heart beat if the economy was better and the jobs paid better.
