Is Hwy 1 from Hearst Castle to Carmel out of the question in a 40 foot coach towing a car?

CA State highway laws say it is NOT lawful.
Any coach 40 foot and above are subject to enforcement.
We drove it a few years ago in a 27ft class C with a Honda CRV in tow and it was 'long- fun' drive.

I did that last year in my suburban and said never again but I have friends who have done it in 40' fleet wood revolution. Said there were a couple of corners they had to stop oncoming traffic to make.

I have done it many times, both directions. It is my wife's favorite route.

We have done it in a 38' American Tradition towing a mini van.
