With the president’s latest expansion of the MAP-21 bill dealing with state-by-state APU regulations, this may be puzzling to drivers that cross state lines.
Below we’ve included a guide, put together by GPS vehicle tracking company Track Your Truck, which informs drivers exactly how much weight is exempt in every state.
