[QUOTE="Rick Ross, post: 4110694, member: 51847"] All you need to do is cover yourself. Call the trailer into dispatch and tell them you aren't responsible for any fines if you're pulled over. Write it up when you get to a building with a shop. Half the time the light will start working again after hitting a bump on the road. I've pulled trailers with expired DOT inspections a few times as well. Once it was a 100% preload that would have missed service. It seemed silly to have 1,000 missed packages if it passes my pre-trip and they accept responsibility. In that case it was a bypass load brought in on the 31st but I didn't couple to it until 3:30am on the 1st. I also made my feeder manager text me saying I was in the clear if pulled over. [/QUOTE]
