    Common general myth. Yes some Judges will dismiss, however some will not. I have seen Judges grant a continuance.

    I haven’t gotten any tickets in about 15 years, but they didn’t show for my last two.

    Also, there’s been a change that he needs to be aware of. A court date has to be requested. It doesn’t happen by default anymore.

    Moose 1958 is correct, each area is different, but it worked for me in 2011 and 15 , so there it is.

    That sucks. In California, we can't be over 40 ft from the kingpin to the center of the rear tandem. It's a pain in the butt.

    That sounded like a flatbed law made on a van trailer?

    Good catch. Lot of guys have a misunderstanding of which states are concerned with the rearmost axle and which are concerned with the center of axle group

    It can get confusing. That why the RM motor carriers atlas come in so handy.
