    It's roadcheck everyday when I am working. Everyone gets in a tiff every year, but you need to do what you are supposed to do everyday. That way, if you get inspected, you walk away with a decal and no violations.
     
    Tazz, walstib and Big Don Thank this.

    I have a new windshield so I really expect to meet someone who gives them as a reward.

    fact is, they are already doing it.
    the day after it was announced I noticed a dramatic increase in scales with multiple trucks out back in several different states

    Pat, we don't just work 2 days a year. As the weather gets nicer and warmer around the US, you will see an increase in the Level 1's. During the cold and windy winter weather the last thing I want to do is crawl a truck. So I'll do a level II or level III inspection. But each day I go to work, inspections get done, the weather usually dictates what level I do. I can't speak for other inspectors.
     
    panhandlepat Thanks this.

    that I do not doubt, It is common to see a truck or two behind the scales here and there getting inspected.
    what I was seeing were half a dozen trucks in some scales with an abnormally high amount of "extra" bears in the coop.
