What’s With Trucks Bypassing Weigh Stations?

How do you know they don't have prepass?

 

New program called the honor system

 

Driverwyze?
Perhaps their trailers are empty or they know that they are light?

My question is why do you care?

 

I have Drivewyze, and am directed to bypass the weigh station at least 90% of the time.

 

So how do you know which trucks have prepass or drivewyze to determine they are just blowing past the station?

Going into MN I am often the only truck not pulling in because I also have drivewyze and get the bypass message.

 

I use Drivewyze for weigh station bypass and I get the bypass about 85% of the time. I actually started using the Drivewyze service in its infancy well before it was in the weigh stations themselves. Now it has expanded greatly across the country and I hardly ever worry about being pulled in.

 

They are a new type of truck, they identify as light weight so they are not required to stop at a weigh station as it is considered insensitive to the weight challenged truck. The biological labeling (GVRW) is to be ignored.

 

There are no transponders or visible signs for Drivewyze.
