Dear Mr. Newman: Thank you for your letter of February 19, 1970, to Mr. Julian E Leysath of this Office asking for suggestions on lighting equipment for a trailer manufactured by Toter, Inc.; This will confirm your understanding that the Toter is considered trailer under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, and not a dolly. Since the manufacturer is responsible for compliance with Federal Standard No. 108 (Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment) I am unable to provide specific suggestions or recommendations for lighting the vehicle in question.; Sincerely, Rodolfo A. Diaz, Acting Director, Motor Vehicle Safet Performance Service;
