    That looks like it violates the vehicle width rules... Driver should be prosecuted...

    It's in Texas, which doesn't excuse it to be on a road. Max width is 8'6"

    No matter what the base width of a vehicle is even the body is only four feet wide. The max load extension to the left is 6 inches and the max to the right is 9 inches. without permits. Mirrors and approved safety devices and equipment excepted. I don't see spiked wheel covers as being in either the load or safety equipment categories
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    This chap must suffer from some serious problems to need these attached. Must have watched the Ben-Hur movie too many times.
