Will police say anything about motorcycles in pickups that are to long and do not allow tailgate to close?

Depends where you go we smile and pay 200 to nice man in uniform for tailgate down traveling on tollways.

Hang a red rag on the most rearward extremity and all will be nice and legal.

 

 

 

And staple banknotes to it to ease the wave onwards when stopped ????

I seriously cannot believe this is anything more than a post designed to get people going one way or the other.... seriously is the op so inured to anything either here or anywhere where they may be from to have not seen anything in their lives..... trawl youtube and you will find all sorts of overhangs, overheights, overbizarre from anywhere in the world....  try New Zealand for instance a legal 4 metre overhang on a 2 axle truck... that's almost as much as what you see here ... the ones that amaze me are the hay truck and trailers they are a sight to behold...once up to about 3.5metres off the ground the sides sprout out almost a metre wider for another metre in height, or the pickups carrying light products like chips/crisps, spot the pickup beneath the closely stacked boxes moving down the road.

Here is classic example of using load parameters to best efficiency, tissue paper arriving at a supermarket distribution centre last week. Not weight overloaded and meeting height and width requirements.... tarpaulin very much necessary as imagine what a good rain would do to the weight ....
