Reprinted from Farm Bureau Spokesman might help clarify a popular question that seems to get different responses quite often.This past summer Congress approved MAP21 which states farmers or farmhands crossing state lines do not need a CDL,med card,log books or inspection stickers.Trucks under 26,000 GVWR are exempt and over 26,000 have to be within 150miles of home.They have a special plate for semis but not sure how pickups are identified [court house doesnt know either.}I like the freedom but unsafe equiptment with inexperienced drivers with questionable medical history can be a bit scary to me.I haul for myself and get stopped sometimes by officers that dont know the law but are looking for revenue.I have always driven past open scales hoping an ambitous bored officer doesnt decide to take a speed run when in fact I an exempt.I have also read in the past and been told that I need everything DOT#s CDL etc.so this might help clarify things .I do have it all just dont need it according to my interpretation of what is written.Then we get into shows ,pulling tractors,tractor ride people,and how it applies to them?They are certainly farm related.
