my truck going home for the 4th can I have fireworks

yea u should be fine bud like stated above keep a low profile because some states like mine (MA) consider just bringing them THROUGH the state a big deal as they are illegal in said state

 

you can not have fireworks in the cab. however i did and the kids loved them. always got them in missouri, have fun

 

The key words are "in commerce" and "reportable quantity". Neither of which buying some consumer fireworks for your kids fall under. There is nothing illegal about it on the federal level because it's not considered hazardous. It's nothing but your personal property. It's not like you are going to blow up the capitol building with bottle rockets or cause further injury if your truck is on fire because it is already deemed there is not enough there to do something.

Truck drivers are allowed to haul materials of the trade including 8 gallons of gas, 119 gallons of diesel and 220 lbs of propane which is a lot more dangerous than a few home fireworks. Just tell them you are putting on a show for your fellow truck drivers at the truck stop. Entertainment for the trade.

 

Every state it is illegal to transport fireworks across state lines and in many states you will not get just a ticket but you will be arrested and may even do jail time. Transporting them as cargo is different story.

 

That's the part you have to watch because they are tax hungry. But he can buy them in MN and transport them home. It's not because they are a danger or you need a hazmat endorsement. The same goes with cigarettes and alcohol. But each state is different. Some have minimum requirements.

 

Thats the best plan--but check around where you are going and b careful where you get them--whne th make selling most (if not all types of)here in Pa--the Jersey and NYC PDs--had a field day just over the Delaware River--had cops at a few of the stands just across line in Pa--recorded NJ/NY tag numbers--radioed the boys on the other side on 78/80 and bang--but its just a MONEY grab

at one point and time. utah people were going to evanston wyoming. wyoming cops played the sting game. would watch the stores. and radio the plates to utah highway patrol. who was sitting at the state line waiting for the cars.

i think the practice has been discontinued as the people made a stink.
