This is not how you get a voluntary inspection from DOT.

From my local news station! Drivers please think before you do, that 25$ you might get for getting a clean inspection does not warrant the amount of trouble your going to to get it.

Its accident, which = automatic inspection and anal swab of your log books. Not to mention ignoring the "NO LIGHT TRAILER" signs. He is about to get probed.


Edit.
Incase it still fly's over peoples heads, ill go a little deeper. The driver choose to ignore the advisory signs, so in essence volunteered for a free inspection and a nice $$$$ fine. Point is those signs are there for a reason, just like chain laws that everyone likes to ignore and end up having similar things happen.

 

If you carrying 8k in the box you can safely assume your a light trailer lol. I think 30k is the cut off for 50mph winds, once you drop below that chances go up more and more. I remember my but puckering on 65mph winds, tho I had a heavy load of low loaded beer.
