The problem IMHO is a bored enforcement officer parked on the side of the highway, or sitting in a scale / inspection station with no 'customers' to keep them busy.
I was running a truck conversion home from FL for a family friend who fell ill and was flown back to Canada a few years back. Crossing into GA from FL I was chased down and stopped by a GA trooper who 'invited' me back to the state line inspection center for a once over by the nice folks there. I passed muster, but they had a good long look and a lot of questions.
Getting nabbed 1,000 miles from home wouldn't be fun at all.
