State Scales
Are those who pull 5th wheels and basically any camper exempt from state scales?

Private vehicles are never required to stop at DOT scales.
Legally in Maryland, if you're over 5T GVW, you're required to stop. That means, with no trailer in tow- in my dually with a 12,300 GVWR I'm supposed to stop. I've swapped emails with the highway department and confirmed.
Practically, I'm sure they'd look at me like a red-headed elephant if I actually did stop.
