I was thinking the same thing. Either that or he was hauling DOTs.... I like those things when at the movies.

Oops, my condolences on the financial rape and apologies for the threadjack, Plowboy.

Perhaps things will improve after you become a Mr. Plowman. I dunno.

So is it the DOT's fault that your trailer was overloaded or is it their fault that you got caught?

D.O.T doesn't load trailers, various shippers do. D.O.T is just a cop for big trucks there to enforce the rules. It's my fault I didn't scale before hitting the interstate, though my weight gauge looked fine in the truck. It's also my fault because I got caught.

Great. Way to take the wind out of the thread. How am I supposed to stay on my high-horse if you step up and accept personal responsibility? You must not be aware that this is 2013 and people don't do that anymore.
