Jim I don't know when MN tighten up on farm trucks but 10 or so years ago they must have. In the space of a year most of the junkers disappeared. The worst offender in my area was a BTO with farms from MI to WA that I know of. New 250K + tractors in the field and junk on the road hauling potatos from the field to storage.

Unless you are going to drastically increase the number of cops enough to not only try to catch thieves and druggies but enough to actually work traffic and spot inspections your idea just won't work. We had a now retired guy with a garbage service. He had like 3 trucks that were always marginal. They would squeak by the annual but seems like every year he'd have a least one get nailed in a spot inspection and tagged out of service. Another local with a dozer and excavator is the same way. figures he makes his money with the equipment, not the truck. Farmers are not the only ones running poor equipment.
