Won`t travel by carriage

[Luciafera]

Anybody else been having the problem with traveling to the big cities with carriage? you talk to the "driver" and then he tells you to get in the back and you`re supposed to be on your way..
But when I get in the carriage NOTHING happens, and the driver keeps telling me that he can`t wait forever and so on... Annoying as hell, and I don`t know how to fix it..

it's not a bug, it's because you are overweight, try to put some stuff beside, (in your house), and when you will be able to run, you will be able to take a carriage...

wow for my Lakeview manor carriage that happened to me and I have 2900 lbs of gear and armor guess I have to shed about 2550 lbs before I can use it lol!

That`s one hell of a diet!

Yeah gotta love Arvak. Just summon and no weight issues with fast travelling.

It won't go for me and I've got below my carryweight

I don't know if this helps or not (and I know I'm late to the party), but I ran into the overencumbered thing, so I dropped a few items. That still didn't work. I discovered that you have to make the request of him *after* you're under your carry weight. If you ask him while you're carrying too much, drop items, and get in the carriage, it will still look at how much you were carrying *when you talked to him.*

After you drop your stuff, go back, try talking to him/requesting a ride again, and then get in. Hopefully this helps someone looking at the thread!

Hold on what's this talk about carriages not letting you travel when overencumbered?

Both horses and carriages let you fast travel while overencumbered ... That's how i always remembered it ...and that's also what makes most logical sense.

Unless that was old patch ? bug?

EDIT: Seeing that this is a necro yea most likely old patch thing / old bug.
I can fast travel with carriages when overencumbered just fine.
