    I know of scales that you can blow without repercussions. Of course, it is an "ancient Chinese secret"... I don't want to cause a mad rush of trucker outlaws, lol.

    ignore the signs.

    signs are for the people that live in the area, not people passing thru.


    otherwise, off, hammer down..

    on, stop in and say hello to thier little friend
     
    Bean Jr. and P60608 Thank this.

    If you want a million view view have your body cam rolling when they pull your out of state truck over for running the scale. The conversation of the rookie driver stating the Enforcement Officer is wrong for pulling him over as he’s seen on TTR that only locals need to pull in. I’m sure Mr. Buford T Justice would slap him and call him a Sum8ît€h.

    I was on US 35, is it nb or wb in Ohio. You know, just past Gallipoli. DOT was set up in the rest area. The guy in front of me either didn't see the sign or did like you. Before I reached the inspection area, one of Ohio's finest was jumping into his suburban and chasing him down. Yup, he collected his prize that day.
