You could be right,but I find it real hard to believe that you have to be a Commercial carrier to haul stuff on a ton truck.I also bet that if enough people would stand up to them,in those states,that that stuff would stop.Agriculture stuff was exempt in the past.Now if its a semi,and he is hauling state to state on farm tags I can see them getting mad about that.Otherwise its something that the cops are trying to get done is what it sounds like.If everybody would take the tickets they get to court and fight them and put it in the newspaper and anything to get them off of peoples backs,they would stop.
The problem here is that this stuff goes on every day.In the commercial world the cops are always coming up with a new scam to try and catch truckers for.Companies fight back.These little guys just pay and they keep on and on until they get some nightmare like this.Fight them.Make them go to court for every one of those stupid tickets they write,and if you loose appeal it until they spend all of their time in court,or what ever needs to be done to make them stop.
Nothing has changed actually.Since the cops were having a hard time catching big trucks,they just switched to smaller vehicles because the poor folks driving them dont have a lawyer on the payroll.
