In tough times like these and budget cutting, you're gonna see more and more "technical" tickets being written...revenue is revenue. Use to see it all the time when I was still OTR.

When I was OTR I pulled a 48' spread axle reefer trailer with an air lift on the lead axle. It's a common set up for owner ops who run LTL to the Northeast. Saves on tire and break wear when run'n light and saves on axle based road and bridge tolls. Never had a problem run'n east, but down south where nobody runs a set up like that I was always get'n pulled over. Ran across a lot of DOT cops that figured something was illegal just cause they had never seen it done.
