Maine Using Cameras Maine Using Cameras, Scales to Catch Weight Violators Quote: The Maine Department of Transportation has installed cameras and scales in an attempt to catch weight violations in trucks that avoid a weigh station on Interstate 95, the Portsmouth (N.H.) Herald reported Friday. The system uses cameras and scales on Route 236 in Eliot, Maine, and on Route 1 in York. If the York weigh station on southbound I-95 in open, the scales will look for trucks in violation of weight regulations, while the cameras will take photos of the trucks, the Herald said. State police can then take appropriate action against the violators. The scales and cameras are part of a $2 million project by the Maine officials in cooperation with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, the Herald said, though the equipment will not be operational until the fall. In another part of the project, the I-95 weigh station is now equipped with technology that allows state police to enter truck information more quickly, in an effort to reduce backup.
