Curious if anyone here has found a good listing of various states weigh stations requirements? All I'm finding are vague statements on travel forums. I'm only towing a cargo trailer with a suburban but I would be just over 10000 Gvwr.
The Shop
Then again, I had a brand new 2011 Cascadia and it was always spotless, so I only got a level 3 one time in Nebraska. Otherwise I always got a green light.
Some states allow departure from these rules for people who drive RV's, but it varies state by state. Some require a different form of license, others don't require anything.
With a little cargo trailer and a Suburban I would not pull into any weigh stations at all.
The following vehicles must stop: (1) agricultural vehicles; (2) passenger or specialty vehicles, either single or in combination (towing a trailer) with GVWR of 10,000 lbs. or more; and (3) commercial trucks with GVWR of 10,000 lbs. or more.
Virginia was 7500 lbs
Not sure how accurate this list is but it should be a decent general idea of the requirements
