Scooby,
Some stars have chosen to not update to most recent FBL regs. Louisiana is another. On member used to pull thru multiple states to west going east at 120k lbs. Hit Louisiana, promptly get a $360 overweight ticket. Pull out company CC, then had a ility to drive the 15-20 miles to dock. Return to Az or NM for another load next week. The ticket was cheaper than separating the dual trailers with two tractors.
Many more readers on here are realizing, that being over the manufactures ratings are not a death sentence. Weight ratings are based on engineers design rating for the roads, not the manufactures warranty ratings.
