If you are a private carrier with a vehicle over 10,000 lbs. GVWR doing interstate business you must register with UCR which replaces the SSR . These regulations are being enforced now . Scroll down to section I page 10 for specific info .

I sinced up last month. I think it's just another way for the feds to get more money out of us.

Yeah the private carriers don't like it but the carriers with authority like it because it costs them less than the SSR did . Supposedly the same amount of money is going to be collected but charging the private carriers brings the cost down to others .

 

So now is this for JUST vehicles over this weight? or combine weights?

 

Thank's for reminding me. I forgot all about it. It's like $39 isn't it??

 

Register here . i know several carriers that used this site . http://www.ucr.in.gov/
