No, weigh stations are for commercial cargo vehicles.
If requested to do so
Interstate weigh stations require any large truck to stop at the stations when they are open and active. A dump truck qualifies as a large truck that would need to stop.
Some states may require it. Ports of Entry in New Mexico require rental vehicles to stop.
To weigh in to make sure that they are not overloaded (because they causes more stress on the roads sometimes in towns at stop lights and stuff you can see the grooves in the tarmack were the trucks come through alot)
Some states do require it. Some states require all rental vehicles to stop at ports of entry (New Mexico is one).
If they would be considered a CMV without the farm plates, yes.
In most states, no. However, some states may require commercial vehicles with a GVWR of as little as 8000 lbs. to stop at weigh stations.
Stop Your Motor was created in 1971.
They stop at stations
"In 1981, then-Gov. Bob Graham and the Legislature halted motor vehicle inspections after complaints about long lines at state-run inspection stations." I found this a web site!!
Generally, no, although some states (New Mexico being one of them) requires all rental vehicles to stop and check in at any weigh station which serves as a port of entry, although they usually won't have to cross the scales.
