You answered your own question. Same requirements as any other day.
-
What more can you do? Take off work for 3 days... run during the night... Dodge scales... The coop on 394 in Illinois this week DOT was stopping trucks who wouldn't stop and get off on RT 30 to scale... Easy an avoidable fix would depending on where your going would be to run 41in Indiana or get off on Glenwood Dyer Rd and go around...
pete1 Thanks this. -
I didn't take 3 days off but I did the next best thing. I contracted to haul honey bees all week.

Keep your dash clean, nothing more then a bol and a note book.. Then there's your cab, be sure its clean, neat , tidy and organized..
-
The thing to remember about roadcheck is that it's random the computer tells them who to inspect.. The inspections are no different than the rest of the year .. I like driving during roadcheck most the junk is parked lol
-
Another hint. Give you truck a fresh bath on Monday.
-
Check you dvir book if its broke fix it. If it dont look right check 2-4 is going to be some easy days for the road.
