Now what is "approved" or how or why, is beyond me. This restriction has been added, but I am unsure when, which really doesn't matter now.

here, we see exemptions for loggers pulling over-length pole-trailers, wind turbine blades, oil and gas pipeline components, manufactured housing, sometimes they'll move vintage and historical homes for restoration and display.
When they moved Howard Hughes' 'Spruce Goose' out of Long Beach, California, I'll bet they had some kind of special 'approval.'
