It'd last a couple years then be thrown out by the conservative SCOTUS

  Where in the Constitution is vehicle size a protected right?

    Commerce clause. (Yes I know it's not a "right" but there's no political will to ban it federally so the distinction doesn't matter much here.) And given the choice between putting up with oversized vehicles and completely eviscerating federal authority to set rules for individuals and small local businesses and organizations (which is what reinterpreting the commerce clause would lead to) oversized vehicles doesn't seem that bad.

      We are talking about the SCOTUS striking down state safety standards for vehicles. I dont think they would. I'm in NH and drive a modded Subaru and I'm getting fisted by CA emissions standards. Will the SCOTUS back me up when I sue CA? Edit: Ooh! There is apparently a lawsuit over this exact issue. I guess we can wait and see!
