MM49 thats BS. There is no room for a large fine.
On edit I will add........3 weeks ago I was told by a US border agent at the Lukeville Port of Entry when I asked...."can we move the barriers for this caravan of 19 rigs so we don't have to snake through the super tight "s" curves" please? His response was priceless, "#1 he said, I can fine you for bringing these large rigs through this crossing, these are considered by me to be commercial vehicles and this is a tourist crossing, and #2 you will have to speak to my supervisors about the moving of the barriers". That was BS too.
#1, All of the barriers were removed for us, none of the coaches were searched and #2 what part of RV doesn't say Tourist (recreational vehicle)? But he had the badge and the gun so it made him the ruler in his mind. At the end of the day though his little cocky butt was shot down by reason - point is don't believe everything you hear from the man. Sometimes it is made up on the fly. Be reasonable my friends.
