Okla. Stat. tit. 47, § 47-170.2

Commission - Contempt of Commission motor carrier rules, tariffs and

regulations - Penalties - Complaint procedure.

A. The Department of Public Safety, monthly, shall notify the

Oklahoma Corporation Commission of any ticket issued for a violation

of the provisions of Section 14-119 of this title, or any provisions

of Chapter 14 of this title or the terms of any special permit

authorized pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 14 of this title

concerning overweight or overweight special permits.

B. Truck overweight violations by motor carriers or private

carriers shall be considered contempt of Commission motor carrier

rules, tariffs and regulations. The Commission shall establish a

specific rule whereby such overweight violations by motor carriers

or private carriers shall be grounds for issuance of a show-cause

order for consideration of temporary or permanent cancellation of

operating authority or license. In establishing the rule,

consideration shall be given to the frequency of violations, pattern

of violations, fleet size, type of operation, amount of overweight,

and other such factors that may indicate intent. Any person, firm,

or corporation that assists in the commission of such overweight

violation or refuses to comply with any rule, regulation, or order

of the Commission relating thereto shall be guilty of contempt of

the Commission and shall be subject to a fine to be imposed by said

Commission in a sum not to exceed Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) on

each violation. In the specific instance of an overweight

violation, the transportation of each load shall constitute a

separate violation. The same fine assessed against the motor

carrier or private carrier shall apply to any other person, firm, or

corporation that aids or abets such violations. Provided however,

no motor carrier, private carrier, shipper or person loading or

causing a motor vehicle to be loaded shall be subject to a fine for

contempt unless the gross weight of the motor vehicle is more than

five thousand (5,000) pounds overweight.

C. The Commission, in its discretion and on its own motion, may

make a contempt complaint in writing under oath setting forth the

violation, enter the complaint on its docket, and proceed with the

matter in accordance with the provisions of Sections 161 et seq. of

this title or the Motor Carrier Act of 1995.
