No CDL (crossed state lines) and no health papers. Also, in recent months, the Nebraska DOT has started stopping pickup/trailer rigs and checking for brakes, lights, safety chains etc. The farm supply company where I work has had many fines for violations.
Remind me not to drive through Nebraska or South Dakota.

I've blown by weigh stations in KS, MO, and IA and never once thought about stopping in to get weighed.
