    He had the axles for it by the looks of it, just not the paperwork.

    Washington County Sheriff’s Office says differently. He had no permits ,improper load securement and missing warning flags. He wouldn’t have even qualified for a weight variance permit. They him shut down and contact the company to bring in a trailer with more axles to spread the weight.

    Maybe not in this case but I have a problem with the government saying “That’s Overweight and Impossible” and then you pay a fee and “Thank You, Be Safe”

    The magic of Government. Always amazes me how paying a fee makes so many things thought impossible become possible.
