I would say lucky. Here in east central MO, the DOT have been checking one tons as much as dump trucks. They started by cracking down on using red fuel, then they started checking loads and plates.

If it passes as is, as soon as one of the local-yokels gets DOT certified, he/she will have the authority to conduct roadsides. When (not if) that happens, the people in their one tons are going to get a SHOCK! Those will be the first to get stopped - not as "scary" as stopping a big rig. All I can say (as a semi-local dump trucker with lots of paperwork to deal with) is good luck. Dale(MO)
