[AT] DOT Question

[Paul Waugh]

I am in the process of putting a semi on the road, in Indiana, the first
time for plates, the owner needs to travel to Indianapolis, for about a 3-4
hr duration of filling out paper work, IFTA, IRPA(?), plates and title ...
since I was running under company authority I did not think I needed a DOT
number, wrong, and when I asked, the principle idea of DOT number is to keep
track to number of vehicles on the road.  DOT and 'authority' are two
different things according to them

US DOT number now required on vehicles over 18,000 pounds, New York Farm 
Bureau

Richard,

The above sight should have all the answers.  Actualy, when you get there it

seems to deal with trucks over 10,001 lbs.  I have to do more reading also.

Merry Christmas
