Mich. Comp. Laws § 207.1114: Diversion of motor fuel from destination on shipping paper; rebuttable presumption.

Sec. 114.

A representative or agent of the department may examine the shipping paper of a fuel transportation vehicle in order to determine whether that fuel transportation vehicle is located outside a reasonably direct route from the supply source to the destination state on the shipping paper. If the vehicle is more than 5 miles from a reasonably direct route, there is a rebuttable presumption that the operator or driver of the vehicle intends to divert the motor fuel from the destination on the shipping paper. If the vehicle is 5 miles or less from a reasonably direct route, there is a rebuttable presumption that the operator or driver of the vehicle does not intend to divert the motor fuel from the destination on the shipping paper.

The operator or driver of a fuel transportation vehicle that is located outside a reasonably direct route from the supply source to the destination state on the shipping paper is subject to the penalties set forth in section 129.
