    If they are within 100 air miles, the local rules would apply and a time card would be sufficient.

    Thanks Moose, yeah, we had good friends back then. We'd do anything for each other, "here, use my tractor to move a wagon", or "wait, I think I have an extra air regulator", it was just a different time. I thought we'd sit around the nursing home with CB antennas and chrome lugnuts on our wheelchairs, remembering our shenanigans, just didn't play out that way, for some.

    In the case of this business you are correct. The OP however is driving from minn to florida.

    I would always roll through the scales if you are driving anything that looks vaguely like a commercial vehicle. It takes less time to be waved away than you would lose to an officer stopping you because they weren't sure if you were illegally skipping the scale.

    I used to do tours. It does make a difference. We were not taking on freight for hire. Race car trailers also are like this.

    I know Nebraska wants ALL trucks with a DOT# to enter the scale, even UHauls.
