Reminds me of Dad's story about hauling helium from Texas. He would
intentionally pull the blind side wheels off the scales to avoid over weight
tickets. Well, one day he got a little to far over and the scales showed
less than the tare weight of the truck. When confronted by the copper he
explained (successfully) that he was hauling helium and the chain boomers
were necessary to keep the cylinders from floating into space.
No kidding. It worked at least one time.
