Re: State Police checks
Did you have NJ plates on the truck and trailer? I have heard some stories about running Maine plates on the trailer.

Re: State Police checks
Had an Indiana state trooper pull me over once and ask what was in the trailer.
After I told him a '70 Chevelle,he asked me to open it up. Once I did,he asked me if it was for sale,I said no and then he gave me his number for when it was. That's the only encounter I've ever had. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Re: State Police checks
Offended by a comment that there are potentially crooked politicians in some states?
Yikes.

Re: State Police checks
Come on Mark. Don't perputuate this. The point is that this forum is not for political bashing.

Re: State Police checks
Good point about perpetuating the issue. I guess I just don't get all of the "offense" these days, but you're 100% right, this isn't the place for that topic, sorry. Carry on.

Re: State Police checks
Albert, I can't speak on behalf of PA Law Enforcement but the whole thing sounds a little goofy to me. Sounds like the trooper might have been on a "fishing expedition" especially due to the fact that he did not demand to see your drivers license or vehicle documents. You need probable cause (that a crime has, is or will be committed) or reasonable suspicion to initiate a stop.
Doesn't sound to me like there was either but like I said maybe they do things different there... I don't know how you would be overweight. That usually only applies to commercial trucks or a pick up that is extremely loaded down which I know you wouldn't be.. But then again I am not too familiar with commercial vehicle laws...

Re: State Police checks
I had the same thing happen last fall on my way to Carlisle Albert . Same exact senario . He questioned me then took off after another truck/trailer that was all lettered up and had him pulled over . If you state your car is for sale you are conducting business . if you remain a hobbyist/car show and are not engaged in making money you are fine . KP
