I go to quite a bit of ropings over there (California) and the CHP is always hassling us. I have been pulled over for doing 58mph in a 55mph. In Cal all trailers no matter what size has a maximum speed limit of 55mph. You are also required to be in the right lane unless you are passing the next lane over! If you just drive in the second lane and the CHP is a jerk I have seen people pulled over.

As far as CDL, when you hit a trailer over 14,000# (apparently rated and not actual load) you do not require a CDL but you are required to have a Medical Endorsement). I have heard the same is true for Arizona but I have asked a lot of people and you get different answers all of the time.
