    No it doesn’t. Says right on the sign and all of the paperwork that comes with prepass. Transponder equipped trucks follow in cab signal. I mean they could not have written it any more clear. Follow your in cab signal not the signage.

    How do people not understand this?

    How do people interpret closed as being not closed.
    I'm sorry, but closed is closed. Period.

    That sign doesnt mean you enter a closed scale. I was heading into Nebraska one time and got a green light but the sign on the hiway said "truck enter scale", so I did. Asked the DOT guys what I should do if that happens again they said follow the prepass. And THATS what the sign means.

    Closed is closed.
     
    Siinman and Speedy356 Thank this.

    Yep Closed. Closed to those who don’t pay for prepass, you got that right.

    So it means what it says when you benefit, however when it’s not to your benefit it doesn’t mean what it says. Nah, there’s no flaw in that logic. Lmao

    When did OR start using Prepass. They use to have their own system called Green Light...my 'Prepass' system always gave me a red light, but this was before these 3rd party systems like Best Pass were around.
