针对加州普通货运车辆的尺寸、重量和路线核对。特殊车型、货物、动力系统与许可例外需另外核对；本页不提供自动通行结论或替代路线许可。For ordinary California freight-vehicle dimension, weight and routing checks. Special vehicles, loads, power systems and permit exceptions require separate review; this page does not grant route clearance or replace a permit.
先弄清这几条要求Start with these requirements
一般外宽 102 英寸，还要看地方路段限制Check the general 102-inch width and local restrictions
- 具体要求What the rule requires
- 一般车辆及货物总外宽不得超过 102 英寸，本章另有例外；特定安全装置的测量排除按条文处理。地方可在有相应标志的辖区道路限制超过 96 英寸的组合车辆，不能只按全国公路常见宽度规划最后一段路。The general outside width limit for vehicle or load is 102 inches, subject to chapter exceptions and specified safety-device exclusions. Signed local restrictions may prohibit combinations over 96 inches; do not plan the last mile solely from the common national-network width.
(a) (a) The total outside width of any vehicle or its load shall not exceed 102 inches, except as otherwise provided in this chapter.
(b) (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, safety devices which the Secretary of Transportation determines to be necessary for the safe and efficient operation of motor vehicles shall not be included in the calculation of width as specified in subdivision (a).
(c) (c) Any city or county may, by ordinance, prohibit a combination of vehicles of a total width in excess of 96 inches upon highways under its jurisdiction. The ordinance shall not be effective until appropriate signs are erected indicating the streets affected.

一般高度上限 14 英尺，也要确认净空Check clearance as well as the general 14-foot height limit
- 具体要求What the rule requires
- 普通车辆及货物高度一般不得超过 14 英尺。超过 13 英尺 6 英寸时，车辆所有人须确认所行道路安全；法定上限不保证每座桥、雨棚或仓库入口有相应净空。Ordinary vehicles and loads generally may not exceed 14 feet. Above 13 feet 6 inches, the vehicle owner must determine that the route is safe. A statutory maximum does not guarantee clearance at every bridge, canopy or facility entrance.
No vehicle or load shall exceed a height of 14 feet measured from the surface upon which the vehicle stands, except that a double-deck bus may not exceed a height of 14 feet, 3 inches. Any vehicle or load which exceeds a height of 13 feet, 6 inches, shall only be operated on those highways where deemed to be safe by the owner of the vehicle or the entity operating the bus.

53 英尺挂车要连同轴距和允许路线一起核对Check a 53-foot trailer’s axle placement and authorized route
- 具体要求What the rule requires
- 本条的长度例外只在规定路网和通达条件内适用。单挂与牵引车组合的半挂通常以 48 英尺为基准；不超过 53 英尺的半挂须满足条文规定的后轴配置和 kingpin-to-rearmost-axle 距离条件，不能仅凭“53 英尺常见”就驶入任何道路。This length exception applies only on the specified network and under its access conditions. For a tractor with a single semitrailer, the baseline is 48 feet; a semitrailer up to 53 feet must satisfy the specified rear-axle configuration and kingpin-to-rearmost-axle distance. Common use of 53-foot trailers does not make every road accessible.
- 条件与例外Conditions and exceptions
- 两个及以上后轴时，最后轴距 kingpin 不超过 40 英尺；单后轴时不超过 38 英尺。其他组合及合理通达另看原文；普通组合长度另见 §35401。With two or more rear axles, the rearmost axle must be no more than 40 feet from the kingpin; with one rear axle, no more than 38 feet. Check the original for other combinations and access; ordinary combination lengths are addressed in §35401.
(a) (a) A combination of vehicles consisting of a truck tractor and semitrailer, or of a truck tractor, semitrailer, and trailer, is not subject to the limitations of Sections 35400 and 35401, when operating on the Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways or when using those portions of federal-aid primary system highways that have been qualified by the United States Secretary of Transportation for that use, or when using routes appropriately identified by the Department of Transportation or local authorities as provided in subdivision (c) or (d), if all of the following conditions are met:
(a)(1) (1) The length of the semitrailer in exclusive combination with a truck tractor does not exceed 48 feet. A semitrailer not more than 53 feet in length shall satisfy this requirement when configured with two or more rear axles, the rearmost of which is located 40 feet or less from the kingpin or when configured with a single axle which is located 38 feet or less from the kingpin. For purposes of this paragraph, a motortruck used in combination with a semitrailer, when that combination of vehicles is engaged solely in the transportation of motor vehicles, camper units, or boats, is considered to be a truck tractor.
(a)(2) (2) Neither the length of the semitrailer nor the length of the trailer when simultaneously in combination with a truck tractor exceeds 28 feet 6 inches.
(c) (c) Combinations of vehicles operated pursuant to subdivision (a) may also use highways not specified in subdivision (a) that provide reasonable access to terminals and facilities for purposes limited to fuel, food, lodging, and repair when that access is consistent with the safe operation of the combinations of vehicles and when the facility is within one road mile of identified points of ingress and egress to or from highways specified in subdivision (a) for use by those combinations of vehicles.

不能只看总重，单轴和轮胎也有限制Check axle and tire loads, not just gross weight
- 具体要求What the rule requires
- 本条一般单轴上限为 20,000 磅，轴一端车轮的一般上限为 10,500 磅；还要核对轮胎制造商载荷及适用的轮胎宽度限制。双轴或多轴组须另按 §35551／适用替代条文与轴距核对。The general limit in this section is 20,000 pounds per axle and 10,500 pounds on the wheels at one end of an axle, with tire-rating and applicable tire-width limits also relevant. Check tandem or other axle groups separately under §35551 or an applicable alternative using actual spacing.
(a) (a) The gross weight imposed upon the highway by the wheels on any one axle of a vehicle shall not exceed 20,000 pounds and the gross weight upon any one wheel, or wheels, supporting one end of an axle, and resting upon the roadway, shall not exceed 10,500 pounds.
(b) (b) The gross weight limit provided for weight bearing upon any one wheel, or wheels, supporting one end of an axle shall not apply to vehicles the loads of which consist of livestock.
(c) (c) The maximum wheel load is the lesser of the following:
(c)(1) (1) The load limit established by the tire manufacturer, as molded on at least one sidewall of the tire.
(c)(2) (2) A load of 620 pounds per lateral inch of tire width, as determined by the manufacturer’s rated tire width as molded on at least one sidewall of the tire for all axles except the steering axle, in which case paragraph (1) applies.

轴组限重按实际轴距查表Use actual axle spacing for group-weight limits
- 具体要求What the rule requires
- 连续两个及以上车轴的允许重量与轴数、最前及最后轴距离有关，应核对官方表格与适用例外。地方道路或桥梁仍可有较低限制；条文限值已包含执法容差，不能自行再加“宽限磅数”。Permitted weight for consecutive axle groups depends on axle count and the distance between the outer axles; use the official table and applicable exceptions. Local roads or bridges may impose lower limits. Statutory limits already include enforcement tolerances, so do not add an assumed allowance.
(a) (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section or Section 35551.5, the total gross weight in pounds imposed on the highway by any group of two or more consecutive axles shall not exceed that given for the respective distance in the following table:
Distance in feet between the extremes of any group of 2 or more consecutive axles 2 axles 3 axles 4 axles 5 axles 6 axles 4 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 5 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 6 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 7 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 8 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 34,000 9 39,000 42,500 42,500 42,500 42,500 10 40,000 43,500 43,500 43,500 43,500 11 40,000 44,000 44,000 44,000 44,000 12 40,000 45,000 50,000 50,000 50,000 13 40,000 45,500 50,500 50,500 50,500 14 40,000 46,500 51,500 51,500 51,500 15 40,000 47,000 52,000 52,000 52,000 16 40,000 48,000 52,500 52,500 52,500 17 40,000 48,500 53,500 53,500 53,500 18 40,000 49,500 54,000 54,000 54,000 19 40,000 50,000 54,500 54,500 54,500 20 40,000 51,000 55,500 55,500 55,500 21 40,000 51,500 56,000 56,000 56,000 22 40,000 52,500 56,500 56,500 56,500 23 40,000 53,000 57,500 57,500 57,500 24 40,000 54,000 58,000 58,000 58,000 25 40,000 54,500 58,500 58,500 58,500 26 40,000 55,500 59,500 59,500 59,500 27 40,000 56,000 60,000 60,000 60,000 28 40,000 57,000 60,500 60,500 60,500 29 40,000 57,500 61,500 61,500 61,500 30 40,000 58,500 62,000 62,000 62,000 31 40,000 59,000 62,500 62,500 62,500 32 40,000 60,000 63,500 63,500 63,500 33 40,000 60,000 64,000 64,000 64,000 34 40,000 60,000 64,500 64,500 64,500 35 40,000 60,000 65,500 65,500 65,500 36 40,000 60,000 66,000 66,000 66,000 37 40,000 60,000 66,500 66,500 66,500 38 40,000 60,000 67,500 67,500 67,500 39 40,000 60,000 68,000 68,000 68,000 40 40,000 60,000 68,500 70,000 70,000 41 40,000 60,000 69,500 72,000 72,000 42 40,000 60,000 70,000 73,280 73,280 43 40,000 60,000 70,500 73,280 73,280 44 40,000 60,000 71,500 73,280 73,280 45 40,000 60,000 72,000 76,000 80,000 46 40,000 60,000 72,500 76,500 80,000 47 40,000 60,000 73,500 77,500 80,000 48 40,000 60,000 74,000 78,000 80,000 49 40,000 60,000 74,500 78,500 80,000 50 40,000 60,000 75,500 79,000 80,000 51 40,000 60,000 76,000 80,000 80,000 52 40,000 60,000 76,500 80,000 80,000 53 40,000 60,000 77,500 80,000 80,000 54 40,000 60,000 78,000 80,000 80,000 55 40,000 60,000 78,500 80,000 80,000 56 40,000 60,000 79,500 80,000 80,000 57 40,000 60,000 80,000 80,000 80,000 58 40,000 60,000 80,000 80,000 80,000 59 40,000 60,000 80,000 80,000 80,000 60 40,000 60,000 80,000 80,000 80,000
(b) (b) In addition to the weights specified in subdivision (a), two consecutive sets of tandem axles may carry a gross weight of 34,000 pounds each if the overall distance between the first and last axles of the consecutive sets of tandem axles is 36 feet or more. The gross weight of each set of tandem axles shall not exceed 34,000 pounds and the gross weight of the two consecutive sets of tandem axles shall not exceed 68,000 pounds.

超限先申请相应道路主管机关的许可Obtain the relevant road authority’s permit before an oversize move
- 具体要求What the rule requires
- Caltrans 或地方道路主管机关可在其管辖范围内依申请发放特别许可。不能把申请已提交视作许可已获批，也不能假定州许可自动覆盖所有地方道路。Caltrans or a local authority may issue a special permit for highways within its jurisdiction upon application. A submitted application is not an issued permit, and a state permit does not automatically cover every local road.
(a) (a) The Department of Transportation or local authorities, with respect to highways under their respective jurisdictions, may, at their discretion upon application and if good cause appears, issue a special permit authorizing the applicant:
(a)(1) (1) To operate or move a vehicle or combination of vehicles or special mobile equipment of a size or weight of vehicle or load exceeding the maximum specified in this code.
(b) (b) Under conditions prescribed by the Department of Transportation or the local authority, the Department of Transportation or local authority may accept applications made by, and issue permits directly to, an applicant or permit service by any of the following processes:

教学例子WORKED EXAMPLE
总重合格，但收货点在小路尽头The load weighs correctly, but delivery ends on a local road
教学场景：53 英尺挂车总重没有超限，导航却给出经过当地小路的最后一段路线。Illustrative scenario: a 53-foot trailer is within gross-weight limits, but navigation sends the last leg along a local road.
核对配置和实际载荷Check configuration and actual loads
确认实际长度、kingpin 到最后轴距离、分轴重量及整体高度，而不只看总重单。Confirm length, kingpin-to-rearmost-axle distance, axle weights and height, not just the gross scale ticket.
核对允许路线Check lawful access
向官方路网资料和有关道路主管机关核对通达、桥梁及地方限制，需要许可时先办妥。Check official truck-network information and the relevant road authority for access, bridge and local restrictions; obtain any required permit first.
称重单和导航各只能回答一部分问题，不能互相替代。A scale ticket and navigation each answer only part of the question.
实际工作中，最容易弄错的地方Common mistakes in day-to-day work
“不到 80,000 磅就可以随便走”“Below 80,000 pounds means any route is fine”
轴组、轮胎、尺寸、路线及桥梁限制仍可能限制通行；总重只是其中一项。Axle groups, tires, dimensions, routes and bridges may still limit access; gross weight is only one check.
