Many States have regulations where any vehicle or combination with a GVWR over 10K must stop at weigh stations, commercial or not, including RV's. Here is a list: http://drivinglaws.aaa.com/laws/weigh-stations/

Michigan has a rule that any vehicle over 10K GVWR with dual rear wheels must stop, to the original point about DRW trucks, but they are the only ones. So the sage advice about non-commercial get a pass is an old wives tale, and not so true after all...
