Will I get an overweight ticket for being 60 over on drive axle?

You should burn that little weight off in fuel. At 60 pounds over I wouldn't worry a out it.

 

If you're legitimately above 60 lbs and the scale is showing the correct weight. You'd probably lose that 60 lbs by the time you get to the scale house.

Diesel weighs about 7lbs per gallon. Assuming youre getting 8mpg that's about 69 miles. Probably a little more depending how close or far the tank is to the drives. Around 100 miles you should definitely lost those 60lbs

 

That's below the precision of most scales.

Anyway unless your tanks are very far forward you'll have burned that off in the next hundred miles.

Don't worry about it but be careful when you fuel.

 

If the wind is blowing right. You'll drop the 60 immediately at the scale.

 

Just don't put more fuel in it than it's current level. Fuel weighs approximately 7 pounds per gallon. This is where it helps to know your fuel mileage if you are already low and need to play the 50 gallon gamble.

...unless you know where the scales are and how far til the next one, also some states allow more than 34000.

At 60 pounds don't even worry about it. Begin to worry when you either exceed 80000 or 500 on drives or tandems.

 

Plus he'll get a break if he has an APU. Like 500 lbs over is exempt with an APU.

 

I would be just fine with that... went from auburn, wa... to Indianapolis...12480...33220...34060...scaled at all open scales.. and there were lots of them... nobody bothered me... lol

 

Ga will kill the rest mostly will not go after you FL for sure will not come at you VA also will not come after you
