It's not their job to know your route, what permits you may have, etc...
Too many variables for a counter jocky to know. Not only is there different weights for each states routes, there are weights based on number of axles and even axle spacing. Then there is weights based on time of year (frost laws) -
They are just certifying that the ticket is generated at that location.
If it is a cat ticket, and it is wrong, then Cat will get involved with your ticket.
