    How rude! :biggrin_25513: I hope when you hit the big road you don't drive like a farmer and make sure all your trailer lights work.

    My first suggestion would be to call the Nebraska Department of Transportation.

    That will get you started int he right direction. I hope you don't have any work planned for the near future.

    Nope. I fly like no other, and lie like hell on my logs!

    I've been driving for 3-4 years. Just haven't had to deal anything out-of-state yet. Unless if you count when I was flatbedding. Corporate took care of all of that.

    Everything you need is a click away in the sticky's at the top of this o/o forum. It gets tiring when 3 times a week there is the same post from someone like yourself, who says they "searched all over" yet didn't read one of the sticky's. They are there to prevent threads like yours. We're a nice bunch, happy to answer any questions that aren't already covered in 50 threads here. Having arrogance though, when you obviously know very little about the subject, will cause most here to kickback and laugh at you, much like the rookie that just solo'ed out, telling us all how we do it wrong. Do some research here and then get back to us. Till then, :happy1:

    What is meant by ICC# is actually an MC#. An MC# is required to haul for hire across state lines. An exemption from this would be if you are hauling "exempt commodities" (i.e. grain, feed, cattle, etc.). Ooida's permit department, or someone like Rex Evilsisor, should get you in the general direction you need to go for information. Their services can be pricey for what they do, but, sometimes worth it I guess.

    I hope you got deep pockets and a lot of time on your hands. Because your the kind of idiot who pays fine after fine and gets put out of service for 10 hours when you get caught. And now with the CSA scores. You'll have your authority and Dot numbers revoked faster than you received them.
    Good luck with that.
