Scared as hell.

Count yourself lucky a lot of those weight restricted road tickets are in the 10's of thousands of dollars.
I also can't see even the most anal company firing you for that , don't have a heart attack.

 

Was it a ticket issued by a city cop? If so it is a municipal fine. Which means it will not show up on your MVR and there will be no points added to your license.

Next time don't take the back route. As far as your legal plan you will still be paying the fine plus the money for the lawyer.

 

10’s of thousands? Really?

 

If you trace the blue line and go down the road, you'll potentially see signs. The best thing to do is check your atlas. I also will tell any driver to stay on the roads that are interstates, state highways or U.S. highways. Most are truck routes and the atlas will tell you if it isn't. If you have a phone number to the customer, call them. Most of the time, there is someone that knows the best way for a truck to get in.

 

Yes! Seriously, awhile back a guy post one for over $17k he got in Illinois.

 

i would highly suggest, that you go and buy a male chastity belt, and lock it up tight. that way when you go see the safety director to explain this, he cannot "cut off your privates"...
