including all occupants, accessories,
cargo,  and trailer  tongue load  must
not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating  (GVWR)  or  the  Gross  Axle
Weight  Rating (GAWR).  To find  out
the  actual  loads on  your  front  and
rear axles, you need to go to a weigh
station  and  weigh  your vehicle.  Be
sure to spread  out your load equally
on both sides of the centerline.

packages,   or   anything   else),
they are  moving  as fast  as the

items  will keep  going  and  can
cause an injury if they strike the
