The law says:

REAR LOAD EXTENSIONS

EXTENSIONS TO THE REAR:
Per CVC Section 35410, the load upon a vehicle, trailer or semitrailer shall not extend to the rear beyond the last point of support for a greater distance than that equal to two-thirds of the length of the wheelbase. The wheelbase of a semitrailer shall be considered as the distance between the rearmost axle of the towing vehicle and the rearmost axle of the semitrailer.

Question:

Is a 4ft truck extender considered the last point of support?

If my wheel base length is 10ft.9inches that means 2/3 of that would be 7ft2inches, which means that no more than 7ft 2inches can stick out from the truck extender?
