Section 29004.5 Of Chapter 1. Towing Equipment From California Vehicle Code >> Division 13. >> Chapter 1.
29004.5
. No recreational vehicle, as described in Section 18010.5
of the Health and Safety Code, designed to be towed, shall be
manufactured for sale in this state, sold, offered for sale, leased,
or rented unless it is equipped with a safety connection in
compliance with Section 29004 with breaking strength which equals or
exceeds the gross weight of the towed vehicle. The retail seller,
renter, or lessor shall supply instructions to the purchaser, renter,
or lessee of such recreational vehicle on proper methods of making
the connection between the towed and towing vehicles. Nothing in this
section shall, however, require a lessor of a recreational vehicle
to supply to the lessee of such vehicle the required instructions if
such vehicle is sold to the lessor by a third party and such third
party or the agent of the third party delivers possession of the
vehicle to the lessee. In such case, such third party shall supply to
the lessee the required instructions.
