I checked with the dot and they are enforcing it now. Called my trailer guy and he is getting calls right and left. Will kill me going to horse shows out of state. I know of a few that go to TX's that have already gotten tickets on it and we all have farm tags.

I have had a commercial license since the beginning. I also have to go every 2 years and recertify for the hazardous materials endorsement. However I was not aware of the 10,000 requirement. I would assume that if you had a farm tag on the truck you would be ok. It is just another way the gov't is paying off the debt..
