Been reading thru the towing section. Man, yall seem to have it tuff on the trucks and stuff. Even tuffer if you get caught without the yellow sticker. I glad that we dont have to go thru that where I am at. I do have my class A commerical drivers license here. To hard to get back if I drop them. So if you go by a weight station there, do you have to drive thur with a truck and car trailer if not commerical?
Lots of interesting things I been reading.

If the turck is registered over 4500Kg (10,000 lbs) then yes, we do have to stop at weigh scales. All the same rules apply as Big Rigs.

Also the MTO and OPP will put on a blitz and pull over anything they feel like ,if it doesn't pass the inspection you are off the road and fined .This usually happens on long weekends in spring and summer

I be doing good just on the truck and trailer here. I got a 2001 dodge quad lwb and a total of 25 ft triaxle trailer with a 20 ft deck. Truck and trailer are 9600 lbs. Seems that I would stay in trouble up there. Tight now noone bother me here. Even DOT looks and smiles.
