Tuscaloosa County
Where Lake View sits
Lake View is in Tuscaloosa County, and the census counts 4,063 people here, at 1,933 per square mile, with a median age of 38.1 years.
What we know about Lake View is what the census records and what Alabama law requires; the yards, pits and depots we have researched elsewhere have no entry here. So the question we can actually answer is how a truck gets out, not who else might want it.
Alabama weight law
That road has a number on it
That route out is where the state stops being an abstraction. Alabama sets the ceiling before any local sign lowers it.
In Alabama the overall gross weight is 80,000 lb, including all enforcement tolerances (Ala. Code § 32-9-20 (Schedule of Restrictions)).
So what leaves Lake View
That rule meets 4,063 people in Lake View, Tuscaloosa County, at a household median around $101,487 and a density of 1,933 per square mile. A truck sitting in a driveway here is a working asset that has stopped working, whatever the size of the place it stopped in.
What we take out of a place like this is sleeper tractors and day cabs, dump trucks and roll-offs, box trucks and flatbeds, pickups and duallys, and the service and utility bodies that outlive the business that bought them.
