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.

What is the curb weight on a 2009 international 5900 truck in a tandem axle configuration?

Every heavy duty commercial truck is built to customer specs. Unless you have 2 trucks spec'd the same they are each uniquely different which causes the curb weight to differ from truck to truck. There are 2 ways to get a curb weight for that particular truck. One get the vin number and contact an International dealer and have them print a built sheet. Two is to take the truck along with about $9 to a truck stop and put it on a scale.


How long does it take a semi truck to stop traveling 55 mph?

The stopping distance for a semi truck traveling at 55 mph can vary depending on several factors, including the truck's weight, brakes, road conditions, and driver reaction time. On average, it can take a semi truck about 300 to 400 feet to come to a complete stop, which includes both reaction time and braking distance. This is significantly longer than a passenger vehicle due to the truck's size and weight.
