Must be a state law. I used to drive a truck when I was a blaster. I never met a state cop that knew if it was legal or not so, I used to carry a copy of this in my truck:

State Castle Laws differ from state to state. If your truck has a sleeper it is considered a domicile when it comes to probable cause to search. Tire thumpers, fifth wheel pin pullers, various chains, Folding knives, slash resistant PAWS gloves, are all common trucker tools that are deadly effective weapons. Train with them because you will become familiar with them. Every trucker has an arsenal of dangerous things in their truck. Learn to use them for more than their intended purposes.
