A:
If you received a citation then the code section alleged to be violated must be printed on it. I am not aware of any weekend prohibition. So long as your historic vehicle is not a truck over 10,000 lbs. or a camper over 25 years old, then A vehicle registered as historic cannot be used for general daily transportation, or primarily for the transportation of passengers or property on highways. It can only be used in exhibitions, club activities, parades, tours, occasional transportation and similar uses. They will not be used for employment, transportation to and from employment or school, or for commercial purposes.
Seems like your use should fall within the “occasional transportation” category.
