I would bet the farm that the promoters of the Carlisle event would like to know about this. Everyone who attends from out of state and buys or sells something is in violation of interstate commerce laws? If that was the truth (and I seriously doubt it) that would pretty much kill that event....as well as all others like it [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img]

In Illinois, even municipalities have been stopping truck/trailer combos for the last few years to check several things:

Are the vehicles registered to an individual or a business. If there is signage on the equipment, vs. a "NOT FOR HIRE" indication, depending on the GVWR, you might need a CDL rating.

Do the vehicles have current state safety inspection stickers, which are required every six months.

Are the license plates the appropriate weight class for both the truck & trailer.

I can't speak for PA., but in IL. they realized that there was a lot of fine revenue available from ticketing drivers & vehicles that were not following the sometimes difficult to understand laws covering this kind of stuff.
