[AT] Frost laws - weight restrictions

[Mike M]

Hi All, was wondering if anyone out their knows some generalities 
regarding weight restrictions when the frost is coming out of the ground 
in spring. I needed my tractor picked up to have some warranty work done 
on it, and we were all set to go when the county slapped up the weight 
restriction signs. I got a call from the man I deal with who told me I 
would need to wait until the restrictions are lifted. Seems a little 
overly cautious to me. We're talking about a dually 1 ton pickup with 
what I would assume to be a 10,000 lb rated trailer. My tractor can't 
tip that scales at much over 5,000 lbs. Can anyone give any insight? I 
certainly understand not wanting to take the chance of getting caught, 
but our garbage truck still comes down the road and I know it's a fair 
bit heavier that the pickup combo.

Thanks,
Mike M
