could be a dollar/lb scenario. I used to work for a precast concrete co. when i was in my early 20s, saw a couple fines like that roll through our dispatch office... boy were they pissed off about that stuff, but it was legit. Never saw one for almost 9k, but there was one where we had a load go out (they maxed the 53' flatbed) where they forgot to add in the weight of all the chains/fuel and believe it or not, the driver... wound up being over an extra ton, and they got a fine for over 2k. Think the other one was a 1k fine or so, either way... that is no bueno.
