And now you going to talk down about this guy because he a slow typer? Ok so it takes him an hour and a half to watch 60 mins for him. Picking on the handicapped how dare you....lmao -
No, not at all. Most troll posters joined the site on the same day that they make their troll post!

I agree. If he told you you cant move, you better not move until you fix the problem You could end up in jail. If that had happened in GA, they would have kept your license in the scalehouse until the problem was fixed.

I would advise you to go to Pilot or any of the major truckstops after this is over and invest in one of those pocket size truckstop directories so this doesn't happen again. No telling how many truckstops you passed in 300 miles? And they are all over Missouri. That's one thing I like about MO, plenty of truckstops.Lux Prometheus Thanks this.

As long as you learn from it, its not a total waste. Just keep in mind that you are responsible for making sure that load is legal. If you weigh it, find it overweight and inform your dispatcher of that fact, it is then their responsibility to get it fixed. True, you might have had to layover for the weekend, but now you laid over plus gonna have to pay a big fine. Im sure the company wont pay it because you didn't weigh it. Always CYA in this business.semi retired semi driver and Lux Prometheus Thank this.

When did Otter get here?......truckerdave1970, OPUS 7 and Hammer166 Thank this. -
I think he drove hundreds of miles then scaled and realized he was 1900 or whatever over. Looked at the map and realized a coop in the near future. Made this story to try to see different scenarios play out and get the courage to keep trucking or dump some weight.
-
I would just kick back and not worry about it, they will fix it when they figure out it cant get delivered sitting in the scale.
-
Well that was a lot of reading just to realize there wasn't an update from the op. I wonder what happened...
