    I was pulled over by state troopers whom informed me that the highway use fees were not payed neither was inspection made promptly by my employer. Its on my record for being a late payment. Can i sue company for having these blemishes on my driving record?

    No. Insuring the truck was road legal is the driver's responsibility. Hence the ticket has the driver's name on it.

    Yep, all on you.
    You should have a permit book that has you ifta, registration, insurance, eld cab card, and (if needed) all the alcohol permits for each state. If you don't the truck should be siting until you do.

    Are you talking about IFTA? Or are you talking about the state of KY or NM use tax? Either way I would say no, it's your responsibility. Having said that, I wouldn't worry too much about it, it's not a moving violation and it's probably a "no points" violation. Sue them? For what? something that has little or no significance on your license. I would find another job.

    What blemishes?

    It isn't a moving violation like speeding so who cares.
