Default Re: Nevada Travel Permit Warning On NHRA

The Nevada people obviously have not read the law on money. It's quite clear and most field people are ignorant of the DOT regulations and they have probably never been challenged. They get a few classroom classes about big rigs (which is what they should enforce). I suggest you get a manual (it's cheap) and outline the section that applies to us and have it with you for all states. Best protection you can have. I can assure you when you pull out that large manual, show them the law, and tell them you feel you are being coerced and request their superior to come to the scene, there is probably a different story. Never never agree that you are a commercial vehicle, because by definition you are not, and the exemption in the manual allows you to do what you do even if you are a commercial motor vehicle.
