Scoob, I drive through your state often. They’d have no reason to stop me for a weight violation because I’m not a resident of MO, and I’m not engaged in commerce. If either were true, it’d be a different story.
Oddly enough though, MO is the only place I’ve ever been stopped (twice) wondering where my plate was. AR doesn’t tag or register TC’s, and we don’t have front plates, so the plate stays on the rear bumper of the truck. I don’t make the rules here, I just follow them as best I can. And, I don’t blame them for stopping me, the plate is hard to see with the camper on. There was no citation.
As for the three guys paying fines for pulling boats with half tons; it wasn’t because they were “overloaded”, it’s because they were under taxed! As soon as they pay the proper registration fee, they can tow the same boat with the same truck.
