I got stopped by a Nebraska scale officer once for towing a stock car on a trailer with a pickup with farm plates on it. I found out the hard way they consider a stock car a revenue producing piece of equipment, and to tow it down a public road you need a tow vehicle with commercial plates. The officer wrote me a ticket.
It was my buddy's pickup, and he had to sign a statement that he would get commercial plates on the pickup within 10 days or they were going to make us park the trailer and go 70 miles home to get something with commercial plates to tow it.

The officer then got out his portable scales and weighed the trailer. I knew we were over weight on the trailer, but the pickup was carrying enough weight through the trailer tongue that the trailer checked out right on the money for what it was licensed for.
I mentioned it a few weeks later to a State Trooper I knew. He said, "That's the law, no getting around it, but I personally think a verbal warning is appropriate the first time".
