IL was famous for that for decades.   Also requiring an IL inspection on any truck operating inside their borders.   Johnny'd sit at the end of the bridge, and nap any truck entering the state.   No lack of brownie points for johnny.   A I recall, the fine was pretty hefty.   Like $50 when most people worked for 75¢ and hour.

There are good reasons why people have been fleeing IL for decades.

Different speed limits for trucks is something the Owner Operator
Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) has been fighting for years.
It seems some "safety" organizations think heavy trucks going fast
is dangerous and try to convince lawmakers to have different speed
limits.
