So....

....just to reiterate, stop lamps are required by law on any and all trailers, all trailers must be registered and if the trailer is on the road after dark the trailer must have a tail light and the registration plate has to be illuminated. I believe the only exception is for tractors/agricultural trailers that then must display the triangle.

In post #8 above you can read the pertinent RSA regarding the stop lamp requirement. There is also a separate RSA dictating appropriate trailer lighting for night time operation.
Not to beat a dead horse but if in fact that's the case why do I constantly see local town and state trucks towing small air compressors or wood chippers with no lights and no registration plates????

Just curious;
