You pay an annual fee to your state for the United Carrier Registration program (on all vehicles 10,001 lbs. gvw or higher) based on the size of your fleet. 2 and under is $76. 3 to 5 $227

they send it to me annually. I need to fully review the application and how many vehicles I have under the UCR and then of course they want payment. I am not sure what kind of fine it totes, but its my understanding its one of the things they look for at the weigh stations for fining good folks. I am not 100% on that as I have never been hassled at a weigh station since I obtained a DOT number. I just pass thru and try to plan my trips around times I suspect they will be closed. Oh yeah. Did I mention back woods dirt roads help with that too.

Yeah, we know those good ole alternate routes pretty well. Gotta love the annual inspection "tax" where you take your vehicle to a shop where they spend 20 minutes checking your lights, tires and glass at $65 per vehicle. My favorite is the $100 online seminar that is required basically reiterating what I learned while growing up. Surely you also fill out those drivers daily inspection reports for each vehicle, the driver data sheets, and the 6 month log book history and remember to keep one of those driver suspicion checklists handy just in case.
