Default Carrier damage to pavement?

Hi folks
Exploring the opportunity to put a couple of carriers in an event next year in Pennsylvania on a 14 mile road convoy and ending with a reenactment battle in a town square district.

I am trying to gather documentation to support allowing bren carriers to be used in the convoy. You may know that in the States, metal tracked vehicles are not allowed on the roads.

That is due to the fact that really, all metal tracked vehicles are construction equipment and their tracks have grousers or cleats and would tear up asphalt paving.

No one making highway laws factors in Bren carriers!

So, since they are allowed in the UK and the EU on highways, Does anyone have any leads on tech documentation or road regulations that set the weight or track styles that allow them to be legal?

I know a carrier's weight foot print is less than a city bus's footprint, but does anyone have better documentation?

leads to government websites that have that data is fine also.

ANy help is greatly appreciated!!
