WV Code 17C-17-4(f): 48 ft semitrailer, rising to 53 ft only where axle spacing between the TRACTOR REAR AXLE and the TRAILER FRONT AXLE is 37 ft or less. ⚠️ That 37 ft is an AXLE-TO-AXLE measurement, NOT kingpin-to-rear-axle as in Wisconsin and most states — a 53 ft trailer legal in Wisconsin is NOT automatically legal in West Virginia. Express statutory proviso removes any overall limit on the NN/designated highways. ⚠️ STATUTE vs STATE PERMIT SHEET CONFLICT: 17C-17-4(c) sets a 55 ft two-unit combination base off those routes, raised to 70 ft only by commissioner designation published on an annual official map (17C-17-4(g)); the WVDOH permit sheet asserts 70 ft on US/WV/County routes without citing that designation. We store the statutory 55 ft as the conservative figure and flag the conflict.

⚠️ WEST VIRGINIA DOES NOT MEASURE KINGPIN-TO-REAR-AXLE. WV Code 17C-17-4(f) measures axle spacing between the TRACTOR REAR AXLE and the TRAILER FRONT AXLE, 37 ft or less, as the condition for a 53 ft trailer (otherwise 48 ft). A 53 ft trailer legal in Wisconsin on a 43 ft KPRA is NOT automatically legal in West Virginia — these are different measurements of different things.

A superload permit is required when weight or dimensions exceed single-trip permit limits (single trip max: 16 ft wide, 120,000 lbs gross; no height/length limit if routes accommodate). No weight limit on superloads but all must pass a bridge analysis; no dimension limit except overhang (15 ft front / 30 ft rear). superload_width_in 192 = over 16 ft; superload_weight_lbs 120000 = over the single-trip gross.
