    ...for livestock haulers?

    I'm thinking of buying a potbellied pig and taking it along with me, you know like a pet dog sitting over on the passenger seat.

    When I get pulled in for an inspection, I'll just point over to Arnold and tell the officer I'm exempt from ELD's because I'm a livestock hauler.

    Do you think that will work?

    Wait a minute, I found a workable solution rather than buying the pig. I'll disguise my dog, Honey. The inspector will certainly fall for this!

    Actually, it's all agricultural commodities. Just toss a bag of chicken scratch in the bunk and you'll be in great shape...!

    Perfect. Milk is considered unprocessed food. Thank you.
