The man with the FMSCA patch on his arm is the law at a scalehouse.Most of the time what he says is what is going to go,he is the Federal law.In the case of a wreck,its the Highway Patrol,City,County whoever they decide has jurisdiction.That means they know the law for the road you are on,ignorance of the law is no excuse,so you need to know the law on the roads you are on.They dont change the law to get you,but they like to not tell you what the law is until they"catch"you breaking it.Asking a cop anything is frustrating most of the time.They will tell you stuff you know is a lie,but they will get away with it because its their interpretation of the law.That means the law is what whatever cop,judge,state,city thinks they can get away with.For the most part,if you can understand what they wrote,its usually stated in the front of an atlas,good enough to get you across a state on the Interstate.Now depending on what you do,what you look like you are doing,and even how crooked the area is,you could still get in trouble.The best thing is to read for the states you want to travel in and see if you can satisfy everybodys laws.On the Interstate you should be able to travel.Not always,but on most State roads,travel information can be found in an atlas,or somewhere about that road.A lot of times State laws are less strict than the FMSCA.
