HHG is a dirty business from front to back so nothing they do surprises me.
Is that Baltimore, OH?

Would LMAO IF DOT boys stopped them and said " well ####, you have a certified Cat Scale ticket so we will just go by that today "

Or someone else causes you to wreck and another driver stops to be a witness on your behalf?
Or someone stops a thief from stealing fuel out of your tank?
Or you're broke down and someone helps you out?
None of these things would put fuel in the other guys tank but we do it anyway. Why? Because without people like us all there is is people like you.

Don't shake your head too much, we're not all perfect. To me the comments sounded more like "busybody" type stuff at first.
Your last comment though is a bit of an unnecessary dig. I'm a decent person. Every situation is different. I just didn't see the value in inserting oneself into this particular one.rank Thanks this. -
The cops can't be everywhere to catch the a-holes. It's up to us.....i.e. society......humanity.......to police itself. If we all just turn the other way then all we have is a bunch of bullies and hoodlums wreaking havoc. Watch your brother's back.
Turning our backs is what allows gangs, corrupt cops, politicians and even Hitler to accomplish what he did.

Because I was not a Socialist.

Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

Some of those hoods can weigh under 10k on the steers
-
Let's say these guys net 25 tons on a load and need $500/load to make it work. That means they need to charge $20/ton. But they are clever. By adding 10K to every load, they get paid for 30 tons and that means they can charge $17/ton. They get the contract by rate cutting and that affects us all.
I wonder if they've asked themselves what happens when they get caught mailing fraudulent invoices, BOL's and scale tickets across state lines.wore out, G13Tomcat and The Admiral Thank this. -
Today with everyone having a video camera cell phone and cameras at many businesses and homes someone would have to be a fool to do something so blatant .

Rank, The Cat scales are setup with 3 separate platforms. The 3 one is longest. So with a short trl. there is room for another trk. to pull up and add the weight
rank Thanks this.
