If you are in an RV you are not subject to these federal and state weight laws.
..unless you are towing or driving an RV for commercial purposes, like being an RV transporter... but then you'd have a DOT number and placard on your truck from the transport company... and in that scenario you are supposed to stop at every truck scale you encounter, if it's open.
In the case when i was doing it, I only had to put a higher weight rating on my vehicle registration for WA State, which is where the truck was licensed. I think I had it registered for 22k.
(someone in an earlier posted mentioned increasing the weight classification of your vehicle registration)
