Laws about not having a truck bed in Arizona?

THEKING · 03-27-2008, 09:02 PM

Hey i moved down here to arizona and i'm too broke to buy a truck bed. I got this ghetto ass wood bed i made on it because i needed it to pass washington laws. Do you guys know the laws regarding truck beds in arizona.

I know people run with their truck beds off all the time, but its my daily and i drive a good 80 miles a day and don't want to get pulled over.

So i figured it out if anyone wanted to know.

-They have no mud flap law
-Tail light height has to be higher then 24 inch
-Didn't figure out about the bumper yet

truthfully it kinda depends where your at. cops change from city to city. i ran with no bed for about 6 months and got pulled over once and it wasnt for the bed. if you get pulled over just tell them you have it off to fix it.

well i got pulled over on the 101 for doing 80 in a 55. I had a taillight out also and he didnt notice. So i guess i'm somewhat ok.

most of them have better things to do. every once in a while you will get that asshole cop who will write you up for a ton of things.

Well in Az you can have a sandrail thats street legal as long as it has the following:

Headlights
tail lights
Turn signals on all corners
Brakes on all wheels
Windshield
Seatbelts

Heck in Prescott there are guys running Jeep Grand cherokees without doors or glass.
