A guy at our company had a newer Ford with a gvwr of 13,500 lbs. He decided to change the tag to show it as 11,000.
The DOT now have a magic thing in their vehicles. Ever hear of a computer and internet?
They pulled up his truck and found the true vehicle weight. He spent the night in jail for fraud.
Hot-Shot Load boards???

He changed the vehicle ID tag. Not the registered weight.
The DOT pulls up the pickup trucks and confirms the tags on them. -

Indiana disagreed with him. -

They ran the truck on the internet and found the truck to have a gvwr higher than what he had on the sticker he had made to put on doing the modified gvwr. He will never try that again is what he said over the cost and all.
