At least that's what the California CHP (800-835-5247) told me when
I had called them about laws regarding transporting 50 gallons of
gasoline in my trunk.


BTW, in New York, apparently you can't carry more than 25 gallons;
yet, California (and presumably the other 49 states), it's 600
*pounds* (yes, pounds) of hazardous materials without a permit.


No, that is not true. Propane has limits for both open and closed
vehicles. Closed in many states is 25 gallons or 215 pounds.


You also state hazardous materials. Do you think it is legal to
transport 600 pounds or radioactive material in your car?
