    In BC, and maybe even the rest of Canada, we're only allowed our bumpers to be a certain height off the ground. I think its around 36". Legally.

    Only the RCMP would be stupid enough too tow a truck like that... oh wait, that truck has an Alberta plate on it, so it was the RCMP. It all makes sense now....

    I just read the rest of the thread and i learned something. :) It probably has to do with bumper height, not tire size.

    No there are tire size laws as well. Same as lift, regardless of bumper height, tire coverage by fenders... etc.

    agreed but according to the argument that truck is very dangerous on the road, even when parked! So if u think of it that way, then who in this video is dumber!? The guy just cruising down the interstate in his obviously illegal and incredibly dangerous truck or the biker just cruising under the tractor in an obviously illegal and incredibly dangerous way?

    that wasn't a huge lifted truck, it was a piece of farm equipment. Im going to go out on a limb and say those things have pretty good visibility directly in front of them and are therefore much safer than this truck (Ive never seen one in person so just a guess).

    The truck is not dangerous just sitting there, but it had to drive in order to park there.

    Sooo, bad example there

    I bet the guy that owns this truck wears tap out shirts and Affliction shirts. Extra small to show off his Steroid injected muscles.

    yeah those tractors are actually pretty awesome and u can see the ground directly in front of u and i would agree that they are very safe vehicles.

    just goin off of what some peoples reasons for that truck being dangerous because of its height or big tires is not necessarily a relevant argument! If we are goin off of pure dangerousness (i know thats not a word, haha) based on the vehicle then that tractor is potentially FAR more dangerous to the driver and its surroundings then that truck is. It just seems like the debate has a lot of opinions in it and not a lot of intelligent facts vs facts statements! Just an observation
