Wilson County
Where Tuckers Crossroads sits

What we know about Tuckers Crossroads is what the census records and what Tennessee 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.
Tennessee weight law
That road has a number on it
That route out is where the state stops being an abstraction. Tennessee sets the ceiling before any local sign lowers it.
In Tennessee the total gross weight of any vehicle or combination on a public highway is 80,000 lb (Tenn. Code Ann. § 55-7-203).
In Tennessee the single axle weight limit is 20,000 lb (Tenn. Code Ann. § 55-7-203).
In Tennessee the tandem axle group weight limit is 34,000 lb (Tenn. Code Ann. § 55-7-203).
So what leaves Tuckers Crossroads
That rule meets 426 people in Tuckers Crossroads, Wilson County, at a household median around $92,679 and a density of 150 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.
