    Ok, stupid question. I've been hiding on dedicated routes for a couple years, and will be going to a new dedicated run in three weeks. In the meantime I'm running OTR, and doing my first East Coast run that will take me through NY tomorrow. I seem to remember from school, (Sage,) that NY was extra douchey and required a sticker? And without that sticker I get cited? Is this the case or can I drive right through that hoe?

    Don't worry about the sticker. They have never said anything to me about it. I had a sticker on my last truck it came off. I did have the permit paper work but no sticker. Never had a sticker on current truck and Went in and came out with no problem.

    Look in your permit book and you will see instructions regarding New York.

    Ok so that's it. The HUT thing. I looked at it, it says For NY HUT call 1800 blah blah, but I was unsure what HUT was and if it applied or was for alcohol etc. Thanks!

    HUT = Highway Use Tax. Send a QC message to Permits and they'll tell you your official status, including the number of the sticker assigned to your truck.

    Screw the sticker. I haven't had one since they started it back up again. Nobody checks anything in that state.
     
    Dinomite and gpsman Thank this.
