It ain't no thang! I think most states require the first one be a 5th, very few allow 2 bumper pulls but some do. I'm thinking about getting some matching rims and low pros for my trailer, what you think? I've hit massive potholes with my truck with no issues. Low pro tires have very strong sidewalls. Higher rated than my stockers! I was skeptical at first how they would work but about 1000 tow miles later they are awesome. 0 problems. longest distance at one time so far is only about 130 miles. Not sure if they run hotter or not on long distance runs but so far I couldn't be happier. Very impressed.

This is from Canada's M.T.O.
Towing More Than One Vehicle
Cars, passenger vans and SUVs are not permitted to tow more than one trailer or one vehicle. Motor homes, trucks, pickup trucks and truck campers are legally permitted to tow two trailers or a trailer and a motor vehicle behind a trailer. However, a three vehicle combination that is swaying excessively, is unstable or has reduced handling capabilities is subject to action by the police as an unsafe combination of vehicles under the Highway Traffic Act.
The maximum length of any combination of vehicles is 23 m (75' 6").

It would be nice if the states would get a common set of towing laws.
The following is a nice presentation, state-by-state. I can't vouch for its accuracy.

A few states and provinces require 5th wheel on first trailer. (Footnote 43)
Only with fifth-wheel trailer in AZ, IL, MI, MN, MB (maximum length 23 m.), SK and YT.
Fortunately, my range of travel does not include those states.

I don't think anybody in their right mind is going to do that.
It's like you said, Maryland is landlocked with respect to double trailering.
