A friend that I used to get hay from was pulled over in his supposedly farmer friendly home county while delivering hay to a customer. He had his single axle grain truck with a 10k tag along. He had farm tags on the truck and a 10k tag on the trailer. He does have a CDL. I do not remember the exact figures but they did indeed ask him to drop the trailer which was over 10k gross.
He had to leave the trailer but the truck alone was legal so he ran and registered it higher to cover the trailer plus pay some fines.
Being this was a local operation, I have asked PA state police about this and it was perfectly legit to make him do this.
Other than something totally unsafe, I really do not care what anyone chooses to do, I just wanted to put it in black and white.
