That also reminds me of a time probably 30 years ago in a Wyoming POE. The company I worked for was moving equipment to a job in Oklahoma and we went through the port by Cheyenne. They had a 3/4 ton pickup pulling a utility trailer. It had to buy a permit. The next outfit was a 2 ton truck with 2 tanks loaded on it wieghing about 10,000# each. The truck was pulling a boat so it was an rv and didn't have to buy permit. It just didn't make sense. Another time working for a local truss plant I hauled a set of trusses into Wyoming and on the way back I would haul web material for trusses. It was winter and as we all know you will pick up weight from snow etc. I pulled into the port and the officer was getting ready to write me a ticket for being 1500# overweight. I said that it was funny that I picked up 2500 # of crud in 30 miles. She says "What do you mean?" I said that when I left the stud mill that I was 1000# under legal and in 30 miles I'm 1500# over? She didn't give me the ticket when I produced the weight slip with time and date stamp from the mill. She sure wanted to give me that ticket but I had done everything I could do to be legal.
